Use a rule of rational exponents to a common base:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"b%5Ex%2Fb%5Ey=b%5E%28x-y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Knowing \"5%5E12\" is some number, known, call this k.
\n" ); document.write( "\"k=5%5E12\". Knowing this k, \"5%5E11=k%2F5\", and \"5%5E13=5k\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
