Question

Find out the sum of 2x²y , 3x²y and 5xy²


​

Answer 1

Answer:

sum of the number is 5x²y+5xy²

Answer 2

${\large{\underbrace{\underline{\bf{Question:-}}}}}$

Find out the sum of 2x²y , 3x²y and 5xy²

​${\large{\underbrace{\underline{\bf{Answer:-}}}}}$

2x²y + 3x²y + 5xy²

Adding the like terms,

+ 5xy²-- As these are unlike terms, they cannot be added and so thisis the final answer.

5x²y + 5xy²

★ NOTE -

You need to add/subtract the like terms. And then eventually you will come at a point where the terms are unlike and so cannot be added or subtracted.

★ More to know -

• What are Like terms?

⇒ Like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match.

• How to identify Like terms?

⇒ We ignore the coefficients and only look if terms have the same variables with same exponents. Those terms which qualify this condition are called like terms.

• What are Unlike terms?

⇒  Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power.

Hope this helps uh! ♡
