A monomial is any mathematical term that can be simplified down to one term. The term MONO means one and that is where the definition comes from.
Examples:
- 8
- x
- x5
- 8x9
There are millions of monomials that come in endless variety. More complex but not too complex monomials are:
8+3
8+3 is a monomial because it can be simplified to 11. You have been learning monomials since Kindergarten, the only difference is that now there is a fancy word for those simple mental math problems.

When multiplying like monomials the coefficients are?
multiplied
What does polynomials mean in mathematical terms?
It means the sum of several monomials.
What two monomials whose greatest common factor is 4M?
The two monomials with a greatest common factor of 4M would be 4M and another monomial that includes 4M as a factor. For example, 4M and 12M would have a greatest common factor of 4M. This is because both 4M and 12M can be divided by 4M without a remainder. The greatest common factor represents the largest monomial that can divide evenly into both monomials.
How would you factorise 8x-16xy?

What are the factors of 4 times 6 equals 24?
Numbers have factors. Monomials and polynomials can have factors. Equations don't have factors.
