Question

Is the term 18m^2n^2 is a monomial

Answer 1

ANSWER

$18 {m}^{2} {n}^{2}$

EXPLANATION

A monomial is a simplified polynomial with only one term.

The given expression is

$18 {m}^{2} {n}^{2}$

This is an algebraic expression in m and n.

The 18 is a constant.

The 18 is the coefficient.

The degree is the sum of the exponents of the variable which is 2+2=4

We cannot simplify this polynomial further and it has only one term.

Therefore

$18 {m}^{2} {n}^{2}$

is a monomial.
