Hi.
*Note: when the bases are the same, you find the new power by just adding the exponents:
.
If I am understand your question properly
4%2A5%5E%286%2B11%29%2A5%5E%284%2B9%29+
.
common base of 5
4%2A5%5E%286%2B11%29%2A5%5E%284%2B9%29=4%2A5%5E17%2A5%5E13+
.
4%2A5%5E17%2A5%5E13+=+4%2A5%5E%2817%2B13%29
4%2A5%5E30
