No.
x^2 * y^2 = (x*y)^2
You multiply the bases but the exponent remains the same.
Convert all expressions to the same base.
If the base numbers or variables are the same, you add the exponents.
For each variable, find the smallest exponent in all the expressions. If the variable does not appear in one of the expressions, it's exponent may be taken as 0. Also, remember that if a variable seems to be without an exponent, its exponent is actually 1 (that is x is the same as x1). For example, GCF(a3bc, a2c3, a3b2c3) = a2c. Exponents of a are 3, 2 and 3: smallest = 2 Exponents of b are 1, 0 and 2: smallest = 0 Exponents of c are 1, 3 and 3: smallest = 1 The same rules apply for fractional exponents.
The exponents are added.
Equivalent expressions.
Sum the exponents.
exponents can be found in math formulas and wen multiplying the same number. exponents can be found in math formulas and wen multiplying the same number.
If you are multiplying numbers with exponents, and the base is the same, you can just add exponents. For example, 104 x 105 = 109.
If you are multiplying powers of the same base (like 24 times 211), yes, you add the exponents.
You add them.
No you add them if the bases are the same.
Convert all expressions to the same base.
If the base numbers or variables are the same, you add the exponents.
When multiplying exponential factors the exponents are added if bases are the same. 5^3 * 5^4 = 5^7 check it out on your calculator.
To divide by a fraction, you simply multiply by the reciprocal. For example, dividing by 3/5 is the same as multiplying by 5/3.
I presume you mean you are multiplying two powers of the same base, where both exponents are negative. Regardless of the signs of the exponents, you algebraically add the exponents. For example, 2-3 times 2-4 is 2-7; 35 times 3-8 is 3-3.
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
