    The coefficient of the middle term in the expansion of\[{{(x+2y)}^{6}}\]is

    A)  \[^{6}{{C}_{3}}\]                             

    B)         \[8{{(}^{6}}{{C}_{3}})\]

    C)  \[8{{(}^{6}}{{C}_{4}})\]

    D)         \[^{6}{{C}_{4}}\]

    E)  \[8{{(}^{6}}{{C}_{5}})\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Middle term in the expansion of\[{{(x+2y)}^{6}}\] \[=\left( \frac{n}{2}+1 \right)\]th term \[=\left( \frac{6}{2}+1 \right)\]th term = 4th term \[\therefore \]Coefficient of middle term = coefficient of \[{{T}_{4}}\] = coefficient of \[{{T}_{3+1}}\] \[{{=}^{6}}{{C}_{3}}{{.2}^{6-3}}\] \[{{=}^{6}}{{C}_{3}}.8\] \[=8{{\,}^{6}}{{C}_{3}}\]
