1. The problem is to simplify the expression $5^{3125^{3125}}$.
2. This is an exponential expression where the exponent itself is a power: $5^{(3125^{3125})}$.
3. First, recognize that $3125$ can be expressed as a power of 5: $3125 = 5^5$.
4. Substitute this back into the exponent:
$$3125^{3125} = (5^5)^{3125}$$
5. Use the power of a power rule: $\left(a^m\right)^n = a^{m \times n}$.
6. So,
$$ (5^5)^{3125} = 5^{5 \times 3125} = 5^{15625} $$
7. Now the original expression becomes:
$$ 5^{3125^{3125}} = 5^{5^{15625}} $$
8. This is the simplified form, expressing the original number as a power of 5 with a very large exponent.
Final answer:
$$ 5^{5^{15625}} $$
