Q

How do you divide and multiply by indices?

A

Example: π‘Ž^4 Γ— 𝑏^2 Γ— 𝑏^5 Γ— π‘Ž ≑ π‘Ž^5𝑏^7
π‘₯^π‘Ž Γ— π‘₯^𝑏 ≑ π‘₯^π‘Ž+𝑏
You add the base and the indices with the same letter
Example: 15𝑦^14 Γ· 5𝑦^3 ≑ 3𝑦^11
π‘₯^π‘Ž Γ· π‘₯^𝑏 ≑ π‘₯^π‘Žβˆ’π‘
You subtract the base and the indices with the same letter
