  Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$1$
  Coefficient of xy in the term -xy is 1.
• B. Coefficient of x in the term $\frac{x}{2}$ is $1$
  Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$\frac{1}{2}$
  Coefficient of xy in the term -xy is 1.
• C. Coefficient of x in the term $\frac{x}{2}$ is $1$
  Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$1$
  Coefficient of xy in the term -xy is -1.
• D. Coefficient of x in the term $\frac{x}{2}$ is $\frac{1}{2}$
  Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$\frac{1}{2}$
  Coefficient of xy in the term -xy is -1.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Coefficient of x in the term $\frac{x}{2}$ is $\frac{1}{2}$

Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$\frac{1}{2}$
Coefficient of xy in the term -xy is -1.
In the expression $\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{2}-xy$, the terms are $\frac{x}{2},\frac{y}{2}$ and $-xy$

Coefficient of x in the term $\frac{x}{2}$ is $\frac{1}{2}$

Coefficient of y in the term $\frac{y}{2}$ is$\frac{1}{2}$

Coefficient of xy in the term $-xy$ is $-1.$
