This video tutorial explains how to simplify expressions using exponent properties. It emphasizes the importance of following the order of operations: simplifying inside parentheses first, then applying power rules, and finally multiplying and dividing. The tutorial demonstrates these steps with an example expression, highlighting the use of the product rule and power of a product rule. The final solution is reached by carefully applying these rules, ensuring a single expression with simplified exponents.

What is the first step suggested for simplifying expressions with exponents?
