Explain how the quotient of powers property was used to simplify this expression. three to the fourth power over nine which equals three to the second power by simplifying 9 to 32 to make both powers base three and adding the exponents by simplifying 9 to 32 to make both powers base three and subtracting the exponents by finding the quotient of the bases to be and simplifying the expression by finding the quotient of the bases to be and cancelling common factors
