Fractional Exponent Rule (Laws of Exponents with Fractions)
Fractional Exponent rule is a rule that is used to solve fractional exponents or the exponents that are in fractional form. An exponent in fractional form is written as a1/n and is read as nth root of a. It is also represented as,
a1/n = n√(a)
Here, a is the base of exponent and 1/n is the exponent in fractional form.
For example, simplify (8)1/3
= (8)1/3 = ∛(8)
= ∛(2×2×2)
= 2
Laws of Exponents
Laws of Exponents: Exponents are a way of representing very large or very small numbers. Exponent rules are the laws of the exponents that are used to solve various exponents’ problems. The multiplication, division, and other operations on exponents can be achieved using these laws of exponents. There are different rules of exponents also called laws of exponents in Mathematics and all these laws are added in the article below.
In this article, we will learn about Exponents Definition, Laws of Exponents, Laws of Exponents Examples, and others in detail.
