Final answer:

To translate a multiplicative expression into its additive counterpart, you would divide the terms and add the exponents of the exponential terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

To translate a multiplicative expression into its additive counterpart, you would divide the terms.

  1. Multiply the digit terms in the usual way.
  2. Add the exponents of the exponential terms.

For example, to translate the expression 23 · 52 into its additive counterpart, you would multiply 2 and 5 to get 10, then add the exponents, 3 and 2, to get 5. So the additive counterpart of the expression is 105.
