Question

Which of the following are like terms to $9p{q}^2$?

• A. 8ab
• B. 5bc
• C. 5b²c
• D. 12pq²

Answer 1

Answer: (C), (D)

The correct options are
C

5b²c

D

12pq²

Terms having the same literals and powers are called like terms.
$5q^{2}p=5p{q}^2$.
Hence $5q^{2}p$ and $12p{q}^2$ are the required like terms.
