In general,
+%28+x%5Ea+%29%5Eb+=+x%5E%28+a%2Ab+%29+
+%28+x%5E%283%2F5%29+%29%5E%28-1%2F5%29+=+x%5E%28+%283%2F5%29%2A%28-1%2F5%29+%29+
----------------------------------------
++x%5E%28+%283%2F5%29%2A%28-1%2F5%29+%29+=+x%5E%28+-%28+3%2F25+%29+%29+
The other way to write it is:
--------------------------
+1+%2F+x%5E%283%2F25%29+
