7:15 Mathematics Topic: multiplying and dividing Exponents
Because, Sometimes a problem is easier to solve in an equivalent form…
Exponents rules and properties:
Quotient rules: (Source: https://www.rapidtables.com/math/number/exponent.html and
https://www.homeschoolmath.net/teaching/md/division-repeated-subtraction.php)
Multiplication is repeated addition, so a n⋅ am= a, raised to the (n+m)
Division is repeated subtraction, so a n/ am= an-m
(Source: https://web.northeastern.edu/seigen/1250DIR/Handout-ExponentsandRadicals1.pdf)
Today, we have two different math activities to choose from: an easier one and
a more challenging one.
