... When multiplying like bases, we add the exponents. • Quotient Rule: For any nonzero number a and any real numbers m and n, am = am−n . an When we divide like bases, we subtract the exponents. • Power Rule: For any real numbers m and n, (am )n = amn . When we raise a power to another power, we multip ...
