To solve this expression, let's first simplify the terms inside the parentheses:
(9³ - 3³) : 3²
Calculate the cube of 9 and 3:
9³ = 9 * 9 * 9 = 729 3³ = 3 * 3 * 3 = 27
Now replace those in the original expression:
(729 - 27) : 3²
Subtract 27 from 729:
729 - 27 = 702
Now, calculate the square of 3:
3² = 3 * 3 = 9
Next, we will divide the result of the parenthesis by 3² (which is 9):
702 : 9
Divide 702 by 9:
702 ÷ 9 = 78
Therefore, the final answer to the expression (9³ - 3³) : 3² is 78.
