1 6.6 Merging Exponents and Roots BobsMathClass.Com Copyright © 2010 All Rights Reserved. 1 Before we get started with definitions and procedures, lets take some time and get acquainted with our scientific calculator. Calculate the following using your calculator. (I’m sure you brought it with you for your math class. Good student are always prepared.) First type in the base, then the exponent key, then the exponent. Examples: (Any decent calculator will convert a decimal to a fraction.) Definition: We will usually use the 2 nd form, keep the m on the outside of the parentheses. (Try and remember, the denominator is always the index number.)
