Answers and Explanations
• Laws of exponents: exponents of numbers are added when the numbers

Answer 1 (a)
are multiplied, subtracted when the numbers are divided, and
• So here numbers are in multiplication form so exponents are added to

multiplied when raised by still another exponent.
each other
+
∴ × =
∴ × = .
• Given number are in divided from so exponents are subtract.

Answer 1 (b)
• So, ÷ =
−
∴ ÷ =
∴ ÷ =
• Here numbers are in multiplication form and than divided from so first
Answer 1 (c)
we add exponents in nominator and dominator and than subtract

exponents of dominator from nominator.

∴ =
∴ =
• The zero exponent rules basically say that any base with
∴ =
• Here one things one should note that,

Answer 3 (c)
+ + ≠ + +
• So, + + =
• Now, the zero exponent rule basically says that any base with
∴ + + =
• Exponents to any base value/variable that means we have to multiply

Answer 4 (a)
• So, means have to multiply 0(number) to itself 0(number) by 2 times.

∴ = ×
∴ =
• Any base with an exponent of zero is equal to one.

Answer 4 (b)
∴ + + = + +
∴ + + =

• Any base with an exponent of zero is equal to one.

Answer 4 (c)
∴ × × = × ×
∴ × × =

{ − × (− } = − × −
× ×
∴{ − × (− } = − × −
∴{ − × (− } = − × −
• Odd number exponents to any minus sign base number/variable will
remove minus sign: − =
∴ { − × (− } = ×
• Given number are in divided from so exponents are subtracted.
