When dealing with exponential equations, we want to make sure the bases are the same. This way we can set-up an equation with the exponents.

 With the same base, we can now write

 Subtract  on both sides.

When dealing with exponential equations, we want to make sure the bases are the same. This way we can set-up an equation with the exponents. Since the bases are now different, we need to convert so we have the same base. We do know that

 therefore

 With the same base, we can now write

 Subtract  on both sides.

 Divide  on both sides.
