How to Solve 1 + 5 to the 5th Power?

To solve the expression 1 + 5⁵, we first need to calculate 5 raised to the 5th power.

Calculating 5⁵ involves multiplying 5 by itself a total of five times:

• 5 x 5 = 25
• 25 x 5 = 125
• 125 x 5 = 625
• 625 x 5 = 3125

So, 5⁵ equals 3125.

Now we can add 1 to this result:

1 + 3125 = 3126.

Therefore, the final answer is 3126.
