The probability that a student studied for exactly 5 hours can be found by dividing the number of students who studied for 5 hours (6) by the total number of students surveyed (35).
Therefore, the probability is 6/35, which is approximately 0.17.
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the answer is 0.17.
Therefore, the correct answer is 0.17.
