    nᵃ n=base, a=power

    When multiplying two monomials of the same base, you add the exponents of the terms and don't change the base.

    nᵃ*nᵇ=nᵃ⁺ᵇ

    When dividing two monomials of the same base, you subtract the power of the denominator from the power of the numerator and don't change the base.

    nᵃ/nᵇ=nᵃ⁻ᵇ

    properties of exponent cannot be used if the monomials don't have the same base.
