This is easiest to explain with an example. One of the laws of exponents says that division of numbers containing exponents makes the exponents subtract from each other. For example, 24/23 = 2(4-3) = 21 = 2. Expanded to use numerical values, 16/8 = 2.
Similarly, 23/23 = 2(3-3) = 20 = 1. It therefore follows that anything to the power zero is equal to one.

What is 124 to the zero power?
It is 1 because everything to the zero power is 1.
Why is 10 to the power zero equal to 1?
Anything to the power zero is equal to 1 by definition.
What is 20 to the zero power?
Any non-zero number, raised to the zero power is equal to 1.
What is 9 to the zero power plus 11 to the zero power?
Any number (except 0) raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, 9 to the zero power is 1, and 11 to the zero power is also 1. So, 9 to the zero power plus 11 to the zero power is equal to 1 + 1 = 2.
Is Anything to the power of zero 0?
No. All real numbers, when raised to the power zero, are equal to 1. Even zero to the zero is equal to 1.
