Properties of Exponents With Variable Bases: Fill in the Blank #3

Make sure your exponent skills are excellent in this engaging worksheet! Students will need to find the missing exponents that make each of the 18 equations true. The base of each exponent is the variable p, so learners will need to base their answers on their knowledge of exponent rules rather than calculation. 

Learners in the eighth grade will benefit most from this activity. They’ll test their understanding of the product of powers property, the quotient of powers property, and the power of a power property, using their knowledge to simplify exponential expressions with integer exponents. These skills will be valuable for students as they delve further into algebra and encounter more complex equations.
