编辑“How to Add Exponents”



To add exponents, the base numbers must be the same. If the base numbers are different, you cannot add the exponents. Here are the steps to add exponents:

1. Make sure the base numbers are the same.

2. Add the exponents.

3. Write the result with the same base number and the new exponent.

For example, to add 3^4 and 3^5:

Step 1: The base number is 3 in both cases.

Step 2: Add the exponents: 3^4 + 3^5 = 3^9

Step 3: Write the result with the same base number and the new exponent: 3^9

So, 3^4 + 3^5 = 3^9. 

Another example, to add 2^3 and 2^7:

Step 1: The base number is 2 in both cases.

Step 2: Add the exponents: 2^3 + 2^7 = 2^10

Step 3: Write the result with the same base number and the new exponent: 2^10

So, 2^3 + 2^7 = 2^10.
