Which are the correct steps to follow to simplify an exponential expression using Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents?

1. Check if the bases are different; if they are, subtract the exponents of the numerators and denominator; and write the resulting expression in exponential form.
2. Check if the bases are the same; if they are, subtract the exponents of the numerator and denominator (leave as-is otherwise); and write the resulting expression in exponential form.
3. Subtract the exponents of the numerator and denominator; and write the resulting expression in exponential form.
4. Check if the bases are the same; if they are, add the exponents of the numerator and denominator (leave as-is otherwise); and write the resulting expression in exponential form.

The correct steps to follow to simplify an exponential expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents are:

1. Check if the bases are the same; if they are not, skip to step 3.
2. If the bases are the same, subtract the exponents of the numerator and the denominator.
3. Write the resulting expression in exponential form, with the base and the simplified exponent.

I apologize for the confusion earlier. The correct steps to simplify an exponential expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents are:

1. Check if the bases are the same; if they are not, skip to step 3.
2. If the bases are the same, subtract the exponents of the numerator and the denominator.
3. Write the resulting expression in exponential form, with the base and the simplified exponent.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2: Check if the bases are the same; if they are, subtract the exponents of the numerator and denominator (leave as-is otherwise); and write the resulting expression in exponential form.
