Heyy!!

I need help please...


`\sf{What \: is \: 6^(2) . \: 6^(8)?}`

Explain into your own words.

Thanks~

Answer 1

`6^(10)`

Explanation:

We can use the following rule of surds to solve the problem:

`\boxed{a^m * a^n = a^(m + n)}`,

which means that when multiplying two numbers with the same bases, we can simply add their powers while keeping the base the same.

Applying this rule:

`6^2 * 6^8`

⇒
`6^(2 + 8)`

⇒
`\bf 6^(10)`
