Simplifying Exponential Expressions
An exponential expression is completely simplified if…
There are no negative exponents. (x–2)
The same base does not appear more than
once in a product or quotient. (x3y4x2)
No powers are raised to powers. (4x)5
Simplifying Exponential Expressions
No products are raised to powers.
No quotients are raised to powers.
Numerical coefficients in a quotient do
not have any common factor other
than 1.

Vocabulary
An exponent tells how many times a number
(called the base) is multiplied by itself.

Reading Exponents
46 is read “4 to the sixth power.”
51 is read “5 to the first power.”
38 is read “3 to the eighth power.”
And so on…
There are two specially-named powers:
32 is read “3 to the second power” or “3 squared.”
43 is read “4 to the third power” or “4 cubed.”
What about a number
raised to the power of ZERO?
Example: What is 30 ?
Did you find that dividing by 3 gives you the
next value?
34 3x3x3x3= 81

raised to the power of ZERO?
Scientific Notation Example: What is 1 x 100 ?
Take notice of the quantity of zero’s following
the 1 in each solution.
1 x 104 10,000
1 x 103 1,000
1 x 102 100
1 x 101 10
1 x 100 1
What about a number
raised to the power of ZERO?
FACT: All non-zero numbers raised to the power
of zero are equal to 1.
1. 20 = 1
2. 40 = 1
3. 1,000,0000 = 1
4. -20 = 1

Negative Exponents
Properties of Exponents Continued…Negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the
denominator and become positive exponents.
