1. Simplifying Exponential Multiplication Expressions.
In this lesson, you will be able to simplify expressions involving the multiplication of two or
more exponential
expressions.

2. Exponents
Review: Exponent is a repeated multiplication.

3. (23)(24) (2*2*2)(2*2*2*2) (8)(16) 128 Exponents
Often in math, you will find expressions involved in multiplying two exponential expressions.

4. Rules of Exponent (23)(24) = 27
When the BASE is the same, you can add the exponents.

5. Let’s try (simplify by writing as a single exponential expression)
(33)(32) =
(42)(47) =
(83)(8) =
(53)(27)(55) =
(x3)(x)(x5) =
(x3)(x20)(y) =
(Fils-Aime)(Fils-Aime2) =

6. Rules of Exponents
Multiplying expressions with the same base allows us to add the exponent.
What do you think happen when we divide exponents with the same base?
