1) Anything to the zero power is 1. To make negative exponents positive, move them to the denominator. 2) Powers with the same base are multiplied by adding the exponents. Raising a power to a power is done by multiplying the exponents. Raising a product to a power distributes the power to each term. 3) To divide exponents, subtract the exponents and place the remaining base over the difference of the exponents.
