Answer:

In mathematics, a coefficient is a factor linked to a monomium. Given a monomium divider, the coefficient is the ratio of the monomium by the divider. Thus the monomium is the product of the coefficient and the divider. The different coefficients will depend on the factorization of the monomium. This is usually next to the letter that accompanies the algebraic fraction. A numeric coefficient is a constant factor of a specific object. For example, in the expression 9x2, the coefficient of x2 is 9. In elemental algebra, numeric coefficients of similar terms are grouped together to simplify algebraic expressions.
