  1. A \((3 n)\) th term
  2. B \((3 n+1)\) th term
  3. C \((3 n-1)\) th term
  4. D \((3 n+2)\) th term
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((3 n+1)\) th term

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\because\) Middle term has greatest binomial coefficient. In the expansion of \(\left(1+3 x+3 x^2+x^3\right)^{2 n}\) \(=\left((1+x)^3\right)^{2 n}=(1+x)^{6 n}\) \(\because 6 n\) is even So, middle term of \((1+x)^{6 n}=T\left(\frac{6 n}{2}+1\right)\) \(=T_{(3 n+1)}=(3 n+1)\)…
