Coefficients are the numbers directly in front of a variable. Variables are letters in place of numbers in a mathematical problem . For example the expression, "2x" has a variable and a coefficient. The variable is the letter x, and the coefficient is the number 2. The coefficient is NEVER a letter, and is always a number. Coefficients and variables can be used in both scientific and algebraic expressions.
