(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

<em>Additional comment</em>
I find it easy to remember the rules of exponents by remembering that <em>an exponent signifies repeated multiplication</em>. It tells you how many times the base is a factor in the product.

Multiplication increases the number of times the base is a factor.

Similarly, division cancels factors from numerator and denominator, so decreases the number of times the base is a factor.

Answer: A, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The line in the middle is a midsegment, making the two triangles similar by a ratio of two. So, dividing 60 by five will give you twelve
The second one because you times the exponents together
