0.008

or alternatively 125 (depends on how you do it)

5³=125


5^(6) =15,625

125÷15,625= 0.008 (on calc, i double checked)

15,625÷125=125 (on calc. i double checked)

So, assuming you are looking for it done the way you have posted it, 0.008.

Hey there!

5^3 ÷ 5^6

= 5 * 5 * 5 ÷ 5 * 5 * 5 * 5 * 5 * 5

= 1 / 125 ≈ 1 / 5^3 ≈ 0.008


Thus, your answer is:

1/125 or 0.008 (either of those should work because they are equivalent to each other)



Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
