Answer:

Change sentence 5 to improve the professional tone

Step-by-step explanation:

Sentence 1 uses the phrasing "would be way better," which does not sound professional.

Sentence 2 uses the phrasing "cleaned up a ton," because it is not referring to a literal ton, it is also not professional.

Sentence 4 uses the phrasing "the stuff," not professional.
