Answer: The correct option is (B) 9.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to simplify the following expression :


E=3^5/ 3^3.

We will be using the following property of exponents :


(x^a)/(x^b)=x^(a-b).

Therefore, the simplification of the given expression is as follows :


E\\\\=3^5/ 3^3\\\\\\=(3^5)/(3^3)\\\\\\=3^(5-3)\\\\=3^2\\\\\=9.

Thus, the required simplified answer is 9.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
