To write a product using exponents, we need to understand the basic rules of exponents.
When we multiply numbers with the same base, we can simplify it using exponents. Here's the rule:
a^m * a^n = a^(m + n)
In other words, we add the exponents when we multiply the same base.
Let's say we have a product with three numbers: a, b, and c. To write it using exponents, we can follow these steps:
1. Write the numbers in a multiplication form: a * b * c.
2. Group the numbers with the same base: (a * b) * c.
3. Rewrite each group as an exponent: a^1 * b^1 * c^1.
4. Use the exponent rule to simplify: a^1 * b^1 * c^1 = a * b * c.
So, the product written using exponents is a * b * c.
