When dividing numbers (or variables) subtract the exponents. Remember, an exponent indicates a kind of multiplication, it is the number of times that a number is multiplied by itself. If you are dividing by that same number, then clearly you are multiplying it by itself a fewer number of times. Division is the inverse function of multiplication.
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
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..
When multiplying exponents with the same base add them: x^3*x^2 = x^5 When dividing exponents with the same base subtract them: x^3/x^2 = x^1 or x
10^4 * 10^7 = 10^11 When multiplying exponents with the same base (in this case, 10), you add the exponents (4+7). If you were dividing, you'd subtract the exponents.
No you add them if the bases are the same.
When multiplying something with exponents, you add it. When dividing something with exponents, you subtract it.
You subtract the exponent of the divisor from that of the dividend.

nothing, keep the exponents the same, remember you can only add or subtract when the exponents are the same
When multiplying exponents with the same base, you add the exponents (a^m × a^n = a^(m+n)). Conversely, when dividing exponents with the same base, you subtract the exponents (a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)). If raising a power to another power, you multiply the exponents ( (a^m)^n = a^(m*n) ). Finally, for any non-zero base raised to the power of zero, the result is always one (a^0 = 1).

When adding or subtracting exponents, you can only combine terms with the same base and exponent. For example, (a^m + a^m = 2a^m). To multiply exponents with the same base, you add the exponents: (a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}). For division, you subtract the exponents: (a^m / a^n = a^{m-n}).
