7-4 Division Properties of Exponents
Objective
Use division properties of exponents to
evaluate and simplify expressions.
Holt Algebra 1
7-4 Division Properties of Exponents
A quotient of powers with the same base
can be found by writing the powers in a
factored form and dividing out common
factors.
Notice the relationship between the
exponents in the original quotient and the
exponent in the final answer: 5 – 3 = 2.

Writing Math
You can “split up” a quotient of products into a
product of quotients:

Example 3: Application
The Colorado Department of Education spent
about
dollars in fiscal year 2004-05
on public schools. There were about
students enrolled in public school. What was
the average spending per student? Write your
answer in standard form.
To find the average spending per student, divide
the total debt by the number of students.
Write as a product of
quotients.

A power of a quotient can be found by first
writing the numerator and denominator as
powers.
Notice that the exponents in the final answer
are the same as the exponent in the original
expression.
