Simplify Powers With Integer Bases Worksheet

8 problems

Powers and exponent in mathematics are techniques to represent a bigger number or smaller number in a simple and easily understandable manner. The 8th grade exponent practice worksheet helps students understand these exponent concepts. 

 

In simple terms, powers are mathematical expressions that represent the repeat multiplication of a number. The number of repeat multiplications of the base determines the value of an exponent in a power expression in mathematics.

Teaching the Simplifying Powers With Integer Bases Easily

 

Base (B): A number multiplied multiple times. 

For example, BxBxBxBxB 


 

Exponent (e): A value representing the number of times a base multiplies.

For example, B5 where e = 5. 


 

Power: An mathematical expression showing repeat multiplication of a number.

For example, B5 is known as power representing 5 times multiplication of B. 


 

Power with an Integer base is specific for mathematical power expression where the base B is always an integer. 210, 3-5, and 61/2, are examples of powers with integer bases. 


 

Laws of Exponents:

Multiplication law: The product of exponents having the same base but different power results in the base being raised to the sum of all the base powers. 

Example: B5 * B2 * B4 = B5+2+4 = B11


 

Division law: It is similar to multipli...
