New General Mathematics for SSS1, SSS 2 and SSS 3 by M. F. Macrae et al
Example: p3 x p2 = ( p x p x p) x (p x p) = p 5
Or p3 x p2 = p 3 + 2 = p5
2. am ÷ an = am - n ---------------------Division law
Example: p6 ÷ p4 = p 6 - 4 = p2
4. am ÷ a m = am - m = a 0 = 1
am ÷am = am/am = ao = 1
a0 = 1 ………………………Zero Index
Note : Any number raised to power of zero is 1
Example: 3o = 1, co = 1, yo = 1
