A. 3 x 10^-2
B. 3 x 10^2
C. 0.35 x 10^-1
D. 3 x 10^-1
To find how many gallons of perfume will be in each container, we need to divide the total gallons of perfume by the number of containers.
10.5 gallons / (3.5 x 10^2 containers)
= (10.5 / 3.5) gallons / (10^2) containers
= 3 gallons / (10^2) containers
= 3 x 10^-2 gallons per container
Therefore, the answer is A. 3 x 10^-2.
