Answer 2

9.5×10¹

Explanation:

You want the quotient of 2.85×10⁶ and 30,000 written in scientific notation.

Division

It is convenient to adjust the exponents of the operands so the coefficient of the quotient has a value between 1 and 10.

`(2.85*10^6)/(30,\!000)=(2.85*10^6)/(0.3*10^5)=9.5*10^(6-5)=\boxed{9.5*10^1}`
