Formulas and Key Relations

1. Core Meaning and Notation

a^n = a × a × a × a × ... × a

5^7

(-3)^8

2. Numbers in Exponential Form

625 = 5^4

32 = 2^5

729 = 3^6

3. Laws of Exponents

a^m × a^n = a^(m + n)

a^m / a^n = a^(m-n) if m > n; a^m / a^n = 1/a^(n-m) if m < n

(a^m)^n = a^(mn)

(ab)^m = a^m b^m

(a/b)^m = a^m / b^m

4. Zero Index and Negative Index

a^0 = 1, if a ≠ 0

a^-m = 1/a^m and 1/a^-m = a^m

Exponential Form of Numbers

625 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 5^4.

32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 2^5.

729 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 3^6.

Key relations

For example, 2^6 = 64, 8^3 = 512, 5^6 = 15625, and 3^5 = 243.

For the same base, a^m × a^n = a^(m+n).
