Step-by-step solution

Let's simplify this expression while maintaining the order of operations.

Let's start by solving what's in the parentheses:

294=25 29-4=25

Now we get the expression:

25:5= 25:5=

In the next step, to make the division easier, we'll break down 25 into two smaller factors that are divisible by 5:

(20+5):5= (20+5):5=

Let's divide each factor in the parentheses by 5:

(20:5)+(5:5)= (20:5)+(5:5)=

We'll solve each expression in the parentheses and obtain:

4+1=5 4+1=5
