Hi. This is not equation as there is no '=' sign I assume you want to simplify this expression.

Use order of operations (PEMDAS).

First thing to do is evaluate the inner parentheses , then the outer.

36-5[(25-4)÷2³]+3³

= 36 - 5 ( 21 / 8) + 3^3

= 36 - 105/8 + 27

= 63 - 13.125

= 49.875 or 49 7/8 Answer

Following BODMAS,

start with the inner brackets first so, 36-5(21/8) + 27 .

Then you multiply: 36 - 105/8 + 27

Work from left to right: answer should be 399/8

Hope this helps :)

Can always check with calculator too XD
