Question

Identify the number of terms in the expression: $11xy+\frac{6a}{y}-4z+25$

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 6

Answer 1

The correct option is B 4

A term is a constant or a variable or a product or a quotient of constant and variables.
An algebraic expression is a collection of one or more terms, which are separated from each other by the signs +(plus) and/or - (minus).
In the expression :$11xy+\frac{6a}{y}-4z+25$
the terms are :$11xy$ ; $\frac{6a}{y}$ ; $4z$ and $25$.
Hence the total number of terms = 4
