In short: This video explains how to multiply two monomials and rewrite the resulting product as a single monomial by applying the fundamental properties of multiplication and exponents.

A monomial is defined as an expression in the form k⋅xⁿ, where k represents a real number and n is a positive integer. Essentially, a monomial is a polynomial that consists of only a single term. By using exponent rules and multiplication properties, any product of two monomials can be condensed back into a single monomial.
