Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.

Why the exponents cannot be added in the product with the same numbers?

Exponents represent repeated multiplication of a base number, and the rules of exponents state that when multiplying two powers with the same base, you add the exponents (e.g., (a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n})). However, when you have a product with exponents, you cannot simply add the exponents because they represent different operations. Each exponent is tied to its specific base, so adding them would misrepresent the actual multiplication of the numbers involved. For example, (a^m \times b^n) cannot be simplified by adding the exponents since (a) and (b) are different bases.
