This document outlines a lesson on dividing numbers in exponential notation. It introduces the rule for dividing powers of the same base: when bases are alike, divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents. An example of x4/x2 = x4-2 = x2 is shown. Students are assigned homework problems involving dividing numbers in exponential form and asked to create and check examples with partners before leaving class.
