Solution Steps

Step 1: Rewrite the exponent as a radical

The expression 12523125^{\frac{2}{3}} can be rewritten using radicals. Recall that amn=amna^{\frac{m}{n}} = \sqrt[n]{a^m}. Applying this rule: 12523=12523 125^{\frac{2}{3}} = \sqrt[3]{125^2}

Step 2: Simplify the expression inside the radical

First, calculate 1252125^2: 1252=125×125=15625 125^2 = 125 \times 125 = 15625 So, the expression becomes: 156253 \sqrt[3]{15625}

Step 3: Evaluate the cube root

Now, evaluate 156253\sqrt[3]{15625}. Since 253=1562525^3 = 15625, the cube root of 15625 is 25. Thus: 156253=25 \sqrt[3]{15625} = 25

Step 4: Rewrite the expression using a radical (without evaluating)

The expression 12523125^{\frac{2}{3}} can be rewritten as: 12523=12523 125^{\frac{2}{3}} = \sqrt[3]{125^2}

Final Answer

12523\boxed{\sqrt[3]{125^2}}
