The answer to your point of you is not to is 6

Answer 2

Answer: Choice D) 2.3 * 10^1

======================================

Work Shown:

$(a * 10^b) \div (c * 10^d) = \frac{a}{c}*10^{b-d}\\\\(5.75 * 10^{4}) \div (2.5 * 10^{3}) = \frac{5.75}{2.5}*10^{4-3}\\\\(5.75 * 10^{4}) \div (2.5 * 10^{3}) = 2.3*10^{1}$

Side note,

$2.3 *10^1 = 23$
