When solving exponential equations, we need to ensure that we have the same base. When that happens, our equations our based on the exponents. However, since the base is different, we can definitely convert one of the numbers to have the same base. We know that 

 therefore

 With the same base, we can now write

 Add  on both sides.

 Divide  on both sides.
