When multiplying numbers with expontents be sure to only multiply numbers that have the Same Base!
For Example, if you had x^6 and X^4 you could multiply them, because they share the same base.
However if you had x^6 and y^9 you couldn't multiply them, because their because their bases are not the same.
Here are six rules to remember when working with exponents-
1. X^m x X^n=X^m+n
2. X^m/X^n=X^m-n
3. (X^m)^n=X^mn
4. X^0=1
5. X^-n= 1/X^n
6. X^m/n =n square root of x^m
