Exponents are the same as powers or indices and so:-

When multiplying terms add the indices: y2*y6 = y8

When dividing terms subtract the indices: x6/x2 = x4

Powers of powers multiply the the indices: (p2)3 = p6

Square root of: d8 = d8/2 = d4

Cube root of: p15 = p15/3 = p5

Remember:-

Anything to the power of 0 is 1: x0 = 1

Anything to the power of 1 is just itself: x1 = x

1 raised to any power is just 1: 110 = 1
