Exponents define repeated multiplication of a base number by itself. Laws of exponents state that when the same base is multiplied, the exponents are added, and when the same base is divided the exponents are subtracted. Exponents also can be distributed across multiplication, so when bases are multiplied, the exponents stay the same.

Laws of ExponentsDefinition : b is called the base and n is the exponent

Examples:Use the laws of exponents to simplify:Since we have a multiplication we need to add the exponents.2.In this example we raised each base to the exponents.3.
