Question 476715
 I was asked to describe three rules for exponents and came up with the following:
Product Rule – When multiplying numbers with the same base we add the exponents together.
Good
-----------------------
Quotient Rule – When dividing numbers with the same base we keep the base, subtracting the exponent of the denominator from the exponent of the numerator
I would say: "Subtract the smaller exponent from the larger exponent".
-----------------------
Power Rule – This is where we raise the base and multiply the exponents
I would say: We raise the base to a power equal to the product of the
exponents.
------------------------ 

Also can you please provide me with an example of an expression that uses scientific notation and at least one of the rules for exponents that I have described? 
(3.2x10^2)/(1.6x10^5) = (3.2/1.6)(10^2/10^5) = 2*10^(-3) = 0.002
