Solution

The correct option is C anbn=(ab)n
Let's take an example:

2522=2×2×2×2×22×2=2×2×2=232522=252

When two exponents having same base and different powers are divided, it results in base raised to the difference between the two powers, i.e., aman=amn–––––––––––.

Let's take an another example:

4323=4×4×42×2×2=84323=(42)3

When two exponents having different bases and same power are divided, it results in the ratio of bases raised to the common power, i.e anbn=(ab)n––––––––––––.
