Question

Explain how the Quotient of Powers Property was used to simplify this expression.

Answer 1

Answer:

A- By simplifying 25 to 52 to make both powers base five and subtracting the exponents

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{5^4}{25} = 5^2$

Change 25 into 5².

$\dfrac{5^4}{5^2} = 5^2$

Apply the Quotient of Powers Property. (Subtract the exponents.)

$5^{4 - 2} = 5^2$

$5^{2} = 5^2$

Answer: A- By simplifying 25 to 52 to make both powers base five and subtracting the exponents
