Problem: Simplify each expression by multiplying monomials.



The task involves simplifying expressions that are products of monomials. To do this, we follow these steps:
1. Multiply the coefficients (numerical parts).
2. Add the exponents of like bases (variables).

Let's solve each problem step by step.
