Explain how the quotient of powers was used to simplify this expression.
5 to the fourth power, over 25 = 52
a: by simplifying 25 to 52 to make both powers base five, and subtracting the exponents
b: by simplifying 25 to 52 to make both powers base five, and adding the exponents
c: by finding the quotient of the bases to be one fifth, and cancelling common factors
d: by finding the quotient of the bases to be one fifth, and simplifying the expression
