Question

How do you simplify `[6\cdot 5^ { 3} - 5] + 6`?

Answer 1

`[6\times5^3-5]+6=\color(mediumaquamarine)(751)`

Explanation:

`[6\times5^3-5]+6`

• split up the `\color(indianred)(5^3)`:
  `[6\times\color(indianred)((5\times5\times5))-5]+6`
• multiply to get `\color(crimson)(25\times5)`... which gets you:
  `[6\times\color(crimson)(125)-5]+6`
• multiply `\color(sienna)(6\times125)`:
  `[\color(sienna)(750)-5]+6`
• subtract the part inside the `\color(olive)(brackets)`:
  `[\color(olive)(745)]+6`
• so now you have `745+6=\color(mediumaquamarine)(751)`
