A 3.0 x
B 3.0 x
C 3.0 x
D 3.0 x
E 3.0 x

Answer 1

I don’t have the full numbers — the question you pasted is missing the exponents/values for each choice. Could you repost the full problem (the two numbers to divide or the five answer choices)?

While you do, here’s how to do division in scientific notation so you can check any of the choices quickly:

Method
1. Write both numbers as a×10^m and b×10^n.
2. Divide the coefficients: c = a / b.
3. Subtract exponents: p = m − n.
4. Combine: result = c × 10^p.
5. Normalize the coefficient so 1 ≤ coefficient < 10:
- If c < 1, multiply c by 10 and subtract 1 from p; repeat if needed.
- If c ≥ 10, divide c by 10 and add 1 to p; repeat if needed.

Example
(3.0 × 10^8) ÷ (6.0 × 10^3)
- Coefficients: 3.0 / 6.0 = 0.5
- Exponents: 8 − 3 = 5
- Combined: 0.5 × 10^5
- Normalize: 0.5 × 10^5 = 5.0 × 10^4

If you paste the exact numbers or the full answer choices, I’ll compute the correct scientific-notation result.
