Find the degree of each monomial

Question

2b²c²

Answer 1

We find the degree of monomials by taking the exponents of the variables and add them together. So we have:

b² and c² where the exponents are 2 and 2.

2 + 2 = 4

 

So the degree of this monomial is 4.

Answer 2

the degree of the monomial is the sum of the degrees of its variables.

For this monomials, you have an 2 exponents of 2.

So the degree of the monomial is 4.
