You don't really need a calculator. Rewrite 125 as 5^3. Bring the 3 down and cancel with the 3 in the denominator. Then you have e^ln(5) which is 5.

I wish I understood this quick trick back in undergrad in the late 2000's when I was taking calculus courses. Still passed but it was literal torture. My math professor wasn't very good at explaining. Basically, the steps when an exponent on a variable is involved is to: - take _ln_ on both sides so exponent can be brought down - isolate the variable - take _e_ on both sides to cancel out the _ln_ on the variable - now just do basic algebra to solve for the variable

yeah its a log rule, i recommend you to proof it by yourself,or find the proof online, i've watched sal khan's video on the proof (khan academy)
Because: log a^2 is just log a + log a which is also 2 log a log a^3 is just log a + log a + log a which is 3 log a log a^4 is just log a + log a + log a + log a which is 4 log a The exponent will be the amount of times u add the logarithms together, which is the same as multiplying the exponent by the logarithm. This isn’t a proof or anything but hopefully it explains it better
