Who created the rules for multiplying and dividing exponents?
It wasn't necessary to 'create' any rules. They follow logically from the definition of exponents.
What are the rules for adding subtracting multiplying and dividing fractions?
no answer
How is exponents are related to other subjects?
One use is shorthand for large numbers, eg the mass of the earth is 5960000000000000000000000 kg , which can be expressed as: 5.96 * 1024 kg there are also rules for multiplying / dividing exponential numbers
What are the laws for dividing and multiplying exponents?
x^a / x^b = x^(a-b)andx^a * x^b = x^(a+b)
When dividing x by x and you have exponents on each of the x do you add the exponents or subtract?
When dividing numbers (or variables) subtract the exponents. Remember, an exponent indicates a kind of multiplication, it is the number of times that a number is multiplied by itself. If you are dividing by that same number, then clearly you are multiplying it by itself a fewer number of times. Division is the inverse function of multiplication.
What are the rules adding and subtracting exponents?
When multiplying something with exponents, you add it. When dividing something with exponents, you subtract it.

When multiplying binomials that turn out negative do you add or subtract exponents?
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
When multiplying a number with exponents do you add or multiply the exponents?
You add exponents when multiplying. Ex: (xm) × (xn) = xm+n
What is 10 to the fourth power multiplied by 10 to the seventh power?
10^4 * 10^7 = 10^11 When multiplying exponents with the same base (in this case, 10), you add the exponents (4+7). If you were dividing, you'd subtract the exponents.
How do you simplify exponents or powers in algebra?
When multiplying exponents with the same base add them: x^3*x^2 = x^5 When dividing exponents with the same base subtract them: x^3/x^2 = x^1 or x
What you do with the exponents when you you are multiplying?
If you are multiplying numbers with exponents, and the base is the same, you can just add exponents. For example, 104 x 105 = 109.
