To find the numerical equivalent of \(7^2 \cdot 7^3\), we can use the property of exponents that states \(a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}\).
Applying this property:
\[ 7^2 \cdot 7^3 = 7^{2+3} = 7^5 \]
Now, we can calculate \(7^5\):
\[ 7^5 = 7 \cdot 7 \cdot 7 \cdot 7 \cdot 7 = 7 \cdot 7 = 49, \] \[ 49 \cdot 7 = 343, \] \[ 343 \cdot 7 = 2401. \]
Therefore, \(7^5 = 2401\).
Thus, the numerical equivalent of \(7^2 \cdot 7^3\) is \( \boxed{2401} \).
