The correct response for simplifying an exponential expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents 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.
In mathematical notation, the Quotient Rule states that if \( a^m \) and \( a^n \) (where \( a \) is the base and \( m \) and \( n \) are the exponents) are involved, then:
\[ \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \]
So, if the bases are the same, you subtract the exponents; if they are not, you cannot simplify using the Quotient Rule.
