you do not do anything when you add numbers with exponents. you just figure out the answer. it is only if you multiply numbers with exponents, where you add the exponents..
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.
Add the exponents
68 = 22 x 17
68 34,2 17,2,2 2^2 x 17 = 68
22 x 17 = 68
2^2 x 17 = 68
2^2 x 17^1
The 6 factors of 68 are 1, 2, 4, 17, 34, and 68.The prime factors of 68 are 2, 2, and 17.The prime factorization of 68 is 2 x 2 x 17 or, in index form (in other words, using exponents), 22 x 17.The prime factorization of 68 is:2 X 2 X 17.So the prime factors of 68 are 2 and 17.
The exponents are added.

The laws of exponents work the same with rational exponents, the difference being they use fractions not integers.
In algebraic equations, exponents can contain variables. They can be solved for by using logarithmic rules for exponents.
