Solution

The correct answer is 5.4 x 10^5.

Here's the step-by-step process:

  1. First, you need to understand the rule of significant figures in multiplication and division. The result should have the same number of significant figures as in the number with the least significant figures. In this case, both 4.5 x 10^14 and 8.3 x 10^8 have two significant figures.

  2. Perform the division: (4.5 x 10^14) / (8.3 x 10^8) = 5.42168675 x 10^5.

  3. Round the result to two significant figures, which gives us 5.4 x 10^5.

So, the correct answer is 5.4 x 10^5.
