Exercise 4 Page 27

Use the Quotient of Powers Law. This Law states that to divide powers with the same base, we need to subtract their exponents.

8^2 or 64

Practice makes perfect

We want to simplify the rational expression by using the Laws of Exponents. 8^(15)/8^(13) In this case, we will use the Quotient of Powers Law. This Law states that to divide powers with the same base, we need to subtract their exponents. Let's do it!

8^(15)/8^(13)

a^m/a^n= a^(m-n)

8^(15-13)

Subtract term

8^2

Calculate power

64
