Did you mean 3%5E2-30%2F3%2F5?
If you did, then to solve it we need to use the order of operations, "PEMDAS"
P(Parentheses)
E(Exponents)
M(Multiplication)
D(Division)
A(Addition)
S(Subtraction)
Exponents come before division and subtraction, so lets simplify the exponent. So now the expression becomes 9-30%2F3%2F5. Now for division. 30%2F3%2F5=2. And finally, subtraction. 9-2=7. So the answer is 7.
