Hello Jeffrey, the blanks were literally just a blank line. Everything you see in the question I wrote for you is what is on the paper in front of me.

For example, all the problems I wrote down have an = sign at the end of the problem with a line next to it like this.
x^n x^m= _________

These are the five laws of exponents. They should be memorized.

You may have learned that anything to the 0 power is equal to 1. The reason for that is because of the next-to-last one. We already know that anything over itself is equal to 1. Let's take x2/x2. We already know that is equal to 1, but it's also x2-2 = x=1.
