When dividing number in scientific notation what must you do with the exponents?
Subtract them.
What is the definition for division property of exponents?
When dividing numbers with exponents, subtract the bottom exponent from the top exponent.
Do you subtract exponents when multiplying?
No you add them if the bases are the same.
When dividing x by x and you have exponents on each of the x do you add the exponents or subtract?
When dividing numbers (or variables) subtract the exponents. Remember, an exponent indicates a kind of multiplication, it is the number of times that a number is multiplied by itself. If you are dividing by that same number, then clearly you are multiplying it by itself a fewer number of times. Division is the inverse function of multiplication.
