What is the difference between product rule and quotient rule?

The product rule differentiates u·v as u'v+uv'; the quotient rule differentiates u/v as (u'v−uv')/v².

The product rule differentiates u·v as u'v+uv'; the quotient rule differentiates u/v as (u'v−uv')/v². A reliable way to keep them apart is to focus on what each one is defined by, not just the similar-sounding words.
