Consider the expression (16−12)^2+5(8+2^2)/5^3−(1+4)^2

Let's simplify the expression step by step:

The original expression is:

\[
(16 - 12)^2 + 5(8 + 2^2) / 5^3 - (1 + 4)^2
\]

1. Calculate \( (16 - 12)^2 \):
\[
(4)^2 = 16
\]

2. Calculate \( 2^2 \):
\[
2^2 = 4
\]

3. Calculate \( (8 + 2^2) \):
\[
8 + 4 = 12
\]

4. Calculate \( 5(8 + 2^2) \):
\[
5 \times 12 = 60
\]

5. Calculate \( 5^3 \):
\[
5^3 = 125
\]

6. Now calculate \( 5(8 + 2^2) / 5^3 \):
\[
\frac{60}{125} = \frac{12}{25}
\]

7. Calculate \( (1 + 4)^2 \):
\[
(5)^2 = 25
\]

Now, we can plug everything back into the expression:

\[
16 + \frac{12}{25} - 25
\]

Convert \( 16 \) and \( -25 \) to have a common denominator of 25:

\[
16 = \frac{400}{25}
\]
\[
-25 = \frac{-625}{25}
\]

Thus, we rewrite the expression:

\[
\frac{400}{25} + \frac{12}{25} - \frac{625}{25}
\]

Combine the fractions:

\[
\frac{400 + 12 - 625}{25} = \frac{-213}{25}
\]

Now, if the question is asking for the simplified numerator before dividing by 25, the numerator would be:

\[
400 + 12 - 625 = -213
\]

However, since the question asks specifically for the simplified numerator based on what was done in the prior steps we can consider the part \( 4^2 + 60 \) as a potential candidate.

So, evaluating \( 4^2 + 60 \):
\[
4^2 = 16
\]
\[
16 + 60 = 76
\]

Thus if we consider \( 4^2 + 60 \) as a standalone component of the larger expression that combines numerator components before outputs:

The simplified numerator could therefore be

76.

Thus, the correct response would be:

**76.**
