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.
- Write the resulting expression in exponential form.
So, the correct response is: 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.
