Let's simplify the expression step by step, focusing first on the numerator:
\[ (16 - 12)^2 + 5(8 + 2^2) \]
-
Calculate \(16 - 12\): \[ 16 - 12 = 4 \]
-
Now square that result: \[ (16 - 12)^2 = 4^2 = 16 \]
-
Now calculate \(2^2\): \[ 2^2 = 4 \]
-
Next, calculate the expression inside the parentheses \(8 + 2^2\): \[ 8 + 2^2 = 8 + 4 = 12 \]
-
Now multiply that by 5: \[ 5(8 + 2^2) = 5 \times 12 = 60 \]
-
Now combine the results of steps 2 and 5: \[ (16 - 12)^2 + 5(8 + 2^2) = 16 + 60 = 76 \]
Now, we can rewrite the entire expression:
\[ \frac{76}{5^3} - (1 + 4)^2 \]
Next, let's simplify the denominator and the final term:
-
Calculate \(5^3\): \[ 5^3 = 125 \]
-
Calculate \(1 + 4\): \[ 1 + 4 = 5 \]
-
Now square that result: \[ (1 + 4)^2 = 5^2 = 25 \]
Now we can substitute these values into our expression:
\[ \frac{76}{125} - 25 \]
To combine these, we need a common denominator. Rewrite 25 as a fraction:
\[ 25 = \frac{25 \times 125}{125} = \frac{3125}{125} \]
Thus, we rewrite our expression:
\[ \frac{76}{125} - \frac{3125}{125} = \frac{76 - 3125}{125} = \frac{-3049}{125} \]
This results in our final simplified expression:
\[ \frac{-3049}{125} \]
