Question

Simplify the following equation:

$5^8\times5^3=$

00:00 Simplify the following problem

00:03 According to the exponent laws, the multiplication of exponents with an equal base (A)

00:07 equals the same base raised to the sum of the exponents (N+M)

00:10 We will apply this formula to our exercise

00:13 We will add up the exponents and raise them to this power

00:16 This is the solution

$5^{8+3}$
