Answer: The correct option is (B) 9.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to simplify the following expression :
![E=3^5/ 3^3.](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/y3w45c4w0b09gmpzsnk2gafbpb8t5x3v9q.png)
We will be using the following property of exponents :
![(x^a)/(x^b)=x^(a-b).](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/fueame7v3rveizodxani67qjgvxyzkar38.png)
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.](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/et9eri3huj4y4j455tenr0u04wjfov7g6s.png)
Thus, the required simplified answer is 9.
Option (B) is CORRECT.
