Math Problem Statement

Evaluate 7[52 - (8 - 3)^2].

Solution

The problem shown in the image is:

7[52(83)2]7 \cdot \left[ 52 - (8 - 3)^2 \right]

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Simplify the parenthesis: 83=58 - 3 = 5

  2. Square the result: 52=255^2 = 25

  3. Substitute into the expression: 7[5225]7 \cdot \left[ 52 - 25 \right]

  4. Simplify inside the brackets: 5225=2752 - 25 = 27

  5. Multiply by 7: 727=1897 \cdot 27 = 189

Final Answer:

189189
