In order to add or subtract numbers with exponents, the exponents must be the same.
In order to multiply numbers with exponents, you complete the multiplication and add the exponents.
In order to divide numbers with exponents, you complete the division, and subtract the bottom exponent from the top exponent.
Examples:
Addition: 4.6 x 107 + 2.5 x 109 = 0.046 x 109 + 2.5 x 109 = 2.546 x 109
Subtraction: 6.7 x 108 - 2.1 x 105 = 6.7 x 108 - 0.0021 x 108 = 6.66979 x 108
Multiplication: 5.3 x 102 x 8.4 x 106 = 44.52 x 102+6 = 44.52 x 108 = 4.452 x 109
Division: 6.2 x 1012/3.1 x 106 = 2.0 x 1012-6 = 2.0 x 106

What are the seven rules for exponents?
Rules for exponents to multiply powers, add the exponents to divide powers, subtract the exponents to find a power of a power, multiply the exponents to find a power of a quotient, apply the power top and bottom to find a power pf a product, apply the exponent to each factor in the product x0 = 1 anything to the power zero equals one x-a = 1/xa a negative exponent means "one over" the positive exponent
When subtracting variables with exponents do you add or subtract the exponenets?
You cannot ad or subtract variables with different exponents: the exponents must be the same. The coefficients are added or subtracted and the exponent of the answer is the common exponent. (The rules are similar to those for the denominators of fractions.)Thus 2x^2 + 5x^3 cannot be combined into a single term.while 2x^2 + 5x^2 = (2+5)*x^2 = 7x^2
When you raise a power to a power what do you do with the exponents?
You multiply the exponents.
What is the relationship between the exponents of the base and the exponent of the product?
when two numbers are multiplied together that are exponents you multiply the bases amd add the exponents the relationship would simply be that the product exponents are the sum of the exponents being multiplied in the question
What is the history of exponents In Algebra?
Exponents are the expodential growth in something.
What are the rules governing real numbers?
There are many. There are those that deal with the four basic binary operations, then there are rules governing exponents and logarithms.
What are the rules governing of real numbers?
There are many. There are those that deal with the four basic binary operations, then there are rules governing exponents and logarithms.
Are there variables in exponents?
In algebraic equations, exponents can contain variables. They can be solved for by using logarithmic rules for exponents.
What are the rules adding and subtracting exponents?
When multiplying something with exponents, you add it. When dividing something with exponents, you subtract it.
Who created the rules for multiplying and dividing exponents?
It wasn't necessary to 'create' any rules. They follow logically from the definition of exponents.
When adding numbers with fraction exponents do you add the exponents?
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.
What are the rules of multiplying and division on algebraic expression?
there are different rules to follow on how to multiply and divide algebraic expressions. but its basics concerns on what kind of terms you are using and the deep concern about its exponents. when you multiply or divide, it is very basic to utilize the distributive method, exponents are being added when we multiply, while subtracted when we divide.
Are exponents considered basic operations?
No. The four basic binary operations of arithmetic are addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

What are the rules for adding multiply divide and subtracting intengers?
Parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division, addition and subtraction.
What are the rules of multiplying and dividing exponents?
1. Find the value of the exponent. 2. Multiply or divide normally.
What is the prime factorization of 6 and 15?
6 is 2x3 and 15 is 3x5 just basic facts no exponents
