This math topic focuses on applying the power law of exponents to multiply terms with prime bases that are expressed as fractions raised to negative and positive powers. It guides learners through the process of combining like bases by summing their exponents, emphasizing the manipulation of fractional exponents and negative bases, mainly using prime numbers such as 2, 3, and 5. Through multiple-choice questions, learners evaluate and simplify these expressions, helping them understand how exponential forms can be combined and simplified using the laws of exponents.
