Solve 5^3/3-2*5^2

$$\frac { 5 ^ { 3 } } { 3 } - 2 \times 5 ^ { 2 }$$

Evaluate

$$-\frac{25}{3}\approx -8.333333333$$

Solution Steps

Calculate 5 to the power of 3 and get 125.

$$\frac{125}{3}-2\times 5^{2}$$

Calculate 5 to the power of 2 and get 25.

$$\frac{125}{3}-2\times 25$$

Multiply 2 and 25 to get 50.

$$\frac{125}{3}-50$$

Convert 50 to fraction \frac{150}{3}.

$$\frac{125}{3}-\frac{150}{3}$$

Since \frac{125}{3} and \frac{150}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{125-150}{3}$$

Subtract 150 from 125 to get -25.

$$-\frac{25}{3}$$

Factor

$$-\frac{25}{3} = -8\frac{1}{3} = -8.333333333333334$$
