"Why is a constant a monomial?"The short answer is because a constant is a special typeof monomial.The reason for this is that the definition of a monomial reads: A monomial is"An expression that is eithera numeral (= a numerical expression which names a particular number, IE a constant),a variable,or a product of a numeral and one or more variables.""constant (monomial): A monomial consisting of a numeral only; a term with no variable factor.

The numerical factor of a term is called the "coefficient."
Any polynomial in which there are at least two co-prime coefficients will have 1 as the greatest monomial factor.
2•5•a•a•a•a
the coefficient
if the monomial is -4x3, then the coefficient is the number in front, so it is -4, thus false. 3 is the exponent, or degree.
The numerical factor of a term is called the "coefficient."
(x + 1) and (x + 2) are monomial factors of the polynomial x2 + 3x + 2. (x + 1) and (x + 3) are monomial factors of the polynomial x2 + 4x + 3. (x + 1) is a common monomial factor of the polynomials (x2 + 3x + 2) and (x2 + 4x + 3)
