Identifying Exponent Properties in Material Scaling

A quality assurance associate is reviewing a standard operating procedure (SOP) for calculating material stress tolerances. The document simplifies a scaling expression in two initial steps:

Step 1: The expression (2xy2z)3\left(\frac{2xy^2}{z}\right)^3 is rewritten as (2xy2)3z3\frac{(2xy^2)^3}{z^3}. Step 2: The numerator is then expanded to 23x3(y2)3z3\frac{2^3 x^3 (y^2)^3}{z^3}.

Recall the mathematical rules of exponents and state the exact names of the two properties used in Step 1 and Step 2, respectively.
