Dear student,
The following is the multinomial formula or theorem, also called the Polynomial Theorem: [1.1] While it looks oppressive, it is easy to prove and also easy to use. In 1.1, the a's are terms. n is an integer. The m's are the number of each term selected. The multinomial coefficient can be written: [1.2]
(Where the sum of the m's is equal to n). For instance: [1.3]
Therefore, the Multinomial Theorem can be written:
