The chain rule tells you how to find the derivative of a function that is composed with another function. It can be expressed a few different ways:
Intuitively, what the chain rule is essentially saying is that the rate of change of the composite function is the rate of change of the outside function when you change the inside function times the rate of change of the inside function when you change x.
The product and quotient rules are given by
