Answer: 235.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First we need to substitute the value of the variable into the expression:

10a - 5b = 10(25) - 5(3).

Now we Multiply 10 and 25 to get 250.

250 − 5 × 3 = 235

Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.

250 − 15 = 235

Subtract 15 from 250 to get, you guessed it, 235!
