Q. Simplify. Express your answer using positive exponents.2g88g8
Write Expression: Write down the given expression.The given expression is 2g88g8. We need to simplify this expression.
Simplify Coefficients: Simplify the coefficients.Divide the coefficients 8 by 2.28=4
Simplify Variables: Simplify the variables with exponents.Since the bases are the same g and the exponents are equal 8, we can divide g8 by g8.g8/g8=g8−8=g0
Recall Exponent Rule: Recall that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. g0=1
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 4.4×g0=4×1=4
