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.
- Multiply the digit terms in the usual way.
- 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.
