What is the value of ((5^3)^2\div25^2)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 25
Using the laws of exponents, \((5^3)^2=5^{3\times2}=5^6\) and \(25^2=(5^2)^2=5^4\). Therefore, \(5^6\div5^4=5^{6-4}=5^2=25\). Hence, option A is correct. In such questions, first express all numbers as powers of the same base.
