Question

What happens if it is asked to find the coefficient of a variable but the variable is not there in the term ?

Answer 1

Every term has a variable

for example :- 5

it has variable

${x}^{0}$

${x}^{0} = 1$

therefore, any number multiplied by 1 is the number itself

let it be 100 or 76 or anything

it will have a variable x^0 but it won't be written because any number multiplied by 1 is the number itself.

hope it helps you
