Algebraic operations

To divide a monomial by a monomial, divide the coefficients (or simplify them as you would a fraction) and divide the variables with like bases by subtracting their exponents.

When you multiply monomials, first multiply the coefficients and then multiply the variables by adding the exponents. Note that when you multiply monomials with same base, you can add their exponents.

To add two or more monomials that are like terms, add the coefficients; keep the variables and exponents on the variables the same. To subtract two or more monomials that are like terms, subtract the coefficients; keep the variables and exponents on the variables the same.
