Dividing Terms with Exponents Made Easy

Division with exponents can seem tricky, but it's not as hard as it looks! Let's break it down step by step.

When we talk about exponents, we usually have numbers written with a small raised number, like this: 2^3. The number 2 is the base, and the number 3 is the exponent. The exponent tells us how many times we need to multiply the base by itself.

Now, let's think about division. Division is like sharing or splitting things into equal groups. For example, if you have 6 candies and want to share them equally among 3 friends, each friend will get 2 candies (6 ÷ 3 = 2).

So, how do we combine division with exponents? Well, when we have the same base in both the numerator and the denominator, we can simplify the division using exponents.

Here's the rule: When you divide two numbers with the same base and different exponents, you can subtract the exponents.

You missed again the definition domain. If x=0 the final answer gives zero which is wrong. The initial formulae is not defined in zero.
