Using the Quotient Rule of Exponents, what is the exponent of 39÷37 when it is in exponential simplest form

Answer 1

To use the quotient rule of exponents, we subtract the exponents of the numerator and denominator.

The exponent of 39 is 1, and the exponent of 37 is also 1. Therefore, we have:
39 ÷ 37 = (3^1)(7^1) ÷ (3^1)(7^1)

According to the quotient rule, we subtract the exponents:
1 - 1 = 0

Therefore, the exponent of 39 ÷ 37 when it is in exponential simplest form is 0.
