Exponent Rules and Multiplying
Monomials
1. Multiply monomials.
2. Multiply numbers in scientific notation.
3. Simplify a monomial raised to a power.
Objective 1
Multiply monomials.

24 means
four 2s.
Since there are a total of seven 2s multiplied,
we can express the product as 27.
Keep the base and add the exponents
Product Rule for Exponents
If a is a real number and m and n are integers,
then am • an = am+n.

Multiplying Monomials
1. Multiply coefficients.
2. Add the exponents of the like bases.
3. Write any unlike variable bases unchanged in
the product.

A Power Raised to a Power
If a is a real number and m and n are integers,
then (am)n = amn.
