Set up and simplify a division of powers expression to solve each problem. Give your answer in both exponential form and as a whole number, showing all work leading to your answer. Then write a sentence to explain your answer.

An important source of food for whales, seals, and penguins that live in and around Antarctica is a shrimp-like crustacean called krill. Suppose a group of research scientists estimate that there are approximately 315 individual krill in a 37 cubic meter section of
the Antarctic Ocean. About how many krill are there per cubic meter in this part of the ocean?
