Is a²b the same thing as ba² ?

Please explain. Thanks so much!

Yes!

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication will always produce the same results no matter which number is the multiplcand and which is the multiplier. This remains true even when exponents are applied, because they come before multiplication in PEMDAS. If a later operation like division was applied to A or B, it wouldn't be the same. Hope this helps!
