Two terms that have the same variables and you can combine them in addition.

For example, 3x and 34x have the same variable, and when you add them, they combine to form 37x.

4y and 4 do not have the same variable and you cannot combine them in addition.

For example, 4y + 4 equals 4y + 4; it cannot be simplified or combined.
