Final answer:
The quotient of 5m and 8h^2 is represented by the expression 5m / 8h^2, which is option (d).
Step-by-step explanation:
The student has asked which of the following represents the quotient of 5m and 8h^2. In mathematics, a quotient is the result of division. Therefore, when we take 5m and divide it by 8h^2, we use the division sign (/) between the two terms. Thus, the correct answer to the question is option (d) 5m / 8h^2.
