I can understand the properties of exponents.

I can make equivalent expressions that have exponents. 

Use these properties when simplifying expressions with exponents (when a, m, and n ≠ 0).

Product of Powers Property:

When the bases are the same, add the exponents.

a^m × a^n = a^(m+n)

Power of Products Property:

When the bases are different, multiply the bases and keep the exponent the same.

a^n × b^n = (a × b)^n

Power of a Power Property:

To find the power of a power, multiply the exponents.

(a^m)^n = a^(m×n)

Quotient of Powers Property:

When the bases are the same, subtract the exponents.

a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)
