    If for some positive integer n, the coefficients of three consecutive terms in the binomial expansion of (1+x)^{n+5} are in the ratio 5:10:14, then the largest coefficient in this expansion is.

    The numerically greatest term in (x+y)^{20} \text { when } x=2.1, y=-2.5 \text { is }

    The largest term in the expansion of $(3+2 x)^{50}$. where $x=\frac{1}{5}$ is

    The largest term in the expansion of  (3+2 x)^{50} where  x=\frac{1}{5}  is

    The greatest coefficient in the expansion of (1+x)^{2 n+1} \text { is }

    If the sum of the coefficients in the expansion (x+y)^n is 1024, then the value of the greatest coefficient in the expansion is:

    Greatest Term (numerically)

    Numerically Greatest Value:

    The number which has the highest modulus value is called the Numerically Greatest Value

    Eg, out of $4,-7,-5,6,1$
    -7 has the Numerically Greatest Value because its mod value $(=7)$ is the largest among all the mod values of the given numbers

    Method to find the Numerically Greatest Term of the expansion $(a+b)^n$
    First, find the value of $m$ which is

    $
    \mathrm{m}=\frac{(\mathrm{n}+1)}{1+\left|\frac{\mathrm{a}}{\mathrm{~b}}\right|}
    $
    If m is an integer, then $\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{m}}$ and $\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{m}+1}$ are numerically equal and both are greatest terms.
    If $m$ is not an integer, then $T_{[m]+1}$ is the greatest term, where $[m]$ is an integral part of $m$.
