The correct steps to follow to simplify an exponential expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents are:
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.
This option accurately describes the process involved in applying the Quotient Rule. Specifically, the Quotient Rule states that when dividing two expressions with the same base, you subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.
