What is the simplified expression for 5^4 times 5^3/5^5

Answer 1

$5^{4} * \frac{5^{3} }{5^{5}} = 5^{4} * \frac{1}{5^{2}} = \frac{5^{4}}{5^{2}} = 5^{2}$

Answer 2

Hello!

To simplify the expression, you'll first need to power each of the numbers by their exponent. Once you've done that you should have...

625*125/3125 or 625*0.04

I hope this helps!
