Question

How do you evaluate `6^ { - 2} \cdot 6^ { 0} \cdot 6`?

Answer 1

`6^{-1}`

Explanation:

You can add exponents when they share the same base. In this case, the base for all the terms are 6. Therefore, you can do `6^{(-2 +0 + 1)}`. ( Note 6 is just 6 raised to the first power). When you add everything, you get `6^{-1}`.
