Locate the blank by matching its exponent pair to a position in the expansion. The second variable’s exponent gives the zero-based index k, and the corresponding entry in Pascal’s row—or the equivalent combination—supplies the coefficient. Check that the first variable’s exponent is n minus k so an adjacent row entry is not used accidentally.
