How confident are you with evaluating exponents?

• Very confident

• Average

• Not very confident

Today, I want you to be able to find the product and quotient of expressions with exponents with the same base.

• product = multiply

• quotient = divide

Multiple Choice

Simplify to find the product $$2^3\cdot2^4$$  

• $$4^{12}$$  

• $$2^7$$  

• $$4^7$$  

Multiple Choice

Simplify

$$\left(2x^3\right)\left(3x^2\right)$$  

• $$6x^5$$  

• $$6x^6$$  

Multiple Choice

$$8\ \cdot\ 8^2$$  equals

• $$64^2$$  

• $$8^3$$  

• $$8^2$$  

Where is the error?

Multiple Choice

$$\frac{12g^8\cdot h^3}{g^2\cdot h}$$  

• $$12g^4h^2$$  

• $$12g^6h^2$$  

Multiple Choice

Simplify to find the quotient $$\frac{8^8}{8^2}$$  

• $$8^6$$  

• $$1^6$$
