1. The table contains products of expressions with different bases and the same exponent. Complete the table to see how we can rewrite them. Use the “expanded” column to work out how to combine the factors into a new base.

   expression	expanded	exponent

2. Can you write with a single exponent? Explain or show your reasoning.
3. What happens when multiplying bases where neither the exponents nor the bases are the same?

Your teacher will give your group tools for creating a visual display to play a game. The goal is to write as many expressions as you can that equal a specific number, using any of the exponent rules that we have learned:

When the time is up, compare your expressions with another group to see how many points you earned.

• Your group gets 1 point for every unique expression you write that is equal to the number and follows the exponent rules. If the other group has the same expression, neither group earns any points.
• If your unique expression uses negative exponents, your group gets 2 points instead of just 1.
• You can challenge the other group’s expression if you think it is not equal to the number or if it does not follow one of the exponent rules.
