	 	| Question : |  
	 		| What is a 'Literal Coefficient' ? |  
	 	| Answer :
 |  
	 		| A letter which has fixed value is a Literal Coefficient. Usually the letters at the begining of the alphabet are used for this 
			purpose. |  
	 		| Literal Coefficient is a coefficient expressed in letters, or in letters and figures. |  
	 		| For Example : |  
	 		| To save time, when you want to write down 56398246 each time in a sum or if its value although fixed is 
			unknown then this number may be called a, b, c, or any other letter of the alphabet. |  |
