Answer:

6.17

Explanation:

This is how I worked it out:

617 ÷ 10^2

617 ÷ 100

= 6.17

Just in case, I'll explain what the 10^2 means. That is 10 to the second power, or 10 squared, but when you type it, you cannot make the 2 go where it needs to be as it is written, unless you use an equation builder. So, 10 squared becomes 10^2.

10^2 means 10 multiplied by itself. So, 10 × 10 = 100. Then, all you have to do is divide 617 by 100. You could simply move the decimal of the 617 left two places or use a calculator.
