A coefficient in literal form in an algebraic term is called a literal coefficient. In mathematics, a coefficient is basically a multiplicative factor in a term but in algebra, a literal coefficient is a multiplying factor which contains one or product of more literal numbers in an algebraic term. Examples $(1) \,\,\,\,\,$ $7a$
Coefficients are located directly in front of the variable in a term. The leading coefficient, which is located on the term with the largest exponent, tells you how steep a linear equation will be or how wide or narrow a quadratic equation will be, as well as which direction the graph will face.
