To evaluate ((5\times 5 + 3) \div 7), follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

First, perform the multiplication inside the parentheses: (5\times 5 = 25).
Next, add the result to 3: (25 + 3 = 28).
Finally, divide the sum by 7: (28 \div 7 = 4).

Therefore, ((5\times 5 + 3) \div 7) equals 4.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
