Short answer

The solution of the expression $5^3$ is 125.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information.

The given expression is $5^3$.

Step 2. Write the concept.

If a is any number, then

$a^n=a\times a\times a\times \dots \times a\left(n-\text{times}\right)$

Here n is the power of a.

Take $n=3$.

Then $a^3=a\times a\times a$. Here 3 is the power of a.

Step 3. Solve the expression.

The expression $5^3$can be solved below.

$$\begin{gathered} 5^3=5\times 5\times 5 \\ =125 \end{gathered}$$
