Solving exponential equation the easy way one to one properties

The video tutorial explains how to handle equations with different bases by simplifying them to a common base. It covers the use of the distributive property to solve equations and provides a step-by-step example. The tutorial emphasizes that even if bases are not initially the same, they can often be rewritten to have a common base, facilitating easier equation solving.

What does it mean when bases are not obvious in an exponential equation?
