it means you need to do B to the power m, then take the nth root of your answer.
eg 9 to the power 3/2, means you do 9 cubed and then square root your answer. in this case, its easier to do the square root first and then cube your answer as the square root of 9 is 3, and 3 cubed is 27. therefore 3 to the power 3/2 equals 27

The power of a quotient is the quotient of the power! (a/b)^n = (a^n) / (b^n) where a/b is the quotient and n is the power.
You don't solve it!!! It is a method of manipulation of indices. a^(n) X a^(m) = a^(n+m) Similarly, a^(n) / a^(m) = a^(n-m) [a^(n)]^(m) = a^(nm)
There need not be any. Consider (a, b, m, n) = (37, 2, 35, 7) where n is a factor of m.or (a, b, m, n) = (37, 2, 5, 7) where m and n are relatively prime.
When M equals 25, then M divided by 5 is 5. It makes no difference what N is.
To multiply m x 10a by n x 10b: multiply the numbers (m x n) add the powers (a + b) (m x 10a) x (n x 10b) = mn x 10a+b To divide m x 10a by n x 10b: divide the numbers (m / n) subtract the powers (a - b) (m x 10a) / (n x 10b) = m/n x 10a-b
