To find the coefficient of the term \(53xy\), we look at the number that is multiplied by the variables \(x\) and \(y\).

In the term \(53xy\), the coefficient is the numerical factor in front of the variables, which is \(53\).

Therefore, the coefficient of the term \(53xy\) is:

53

sorry its 5/3xy not 53xy

No problem! If the term is \( \frac{5}{3}xy \), we can identify the coefficient by looking at the numerical factor that is multiplied by the variables \(x\) and \(y\).

In the term \( \frac{5}{3}xy \), the coefficient is \( \frac{5}{3} \).

So, the coefficient of the term \( \frac{5}{3}xy \) is:

\(\frac{5}{3}\)
