Which of the following statements is/are correct? I. Like terms are those terms which are not having the same algebraic factors II. Unlike terms are those terms which are having the same algebraic factors Correct Answer Neither I nor II

Algebraic Expressions: A combination of constants and variables connected by some or all of the four fundamental operations +, -, × and ÷ is called an algebraic expression. Like and Unlike Terms:

  • We say the terms having the same algebraic factors as similar or like terms. : In the expression 2a + 5ab – 3a – b, the terms 2a, -3a have the same algebraic factor a. So they are like terms.
  • When the terms do not have the same algebraic factors are called unlike terms. Terms 2a, 5ab have different algebraic factors, they are unlike terms.

Hence, we conclude that both the statements are contradictory.
