To solve the expression, we need to follow the order of operations, which is parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), and addition and subtraction (from left to right). In this case, there are no parentheses or exponents, so we can move on to multiplication and division.
First, we have 5 multiplied by 5, which equals 25.
Next, using the order of operations, we perform the multiplication before the subtraction and addition.
So, the expression becomes:
5 + 25 - 5
Now we can perform the addition and subtraction in order:
5 + 25 = 30
30 - 5 = 25
Therefore, the answer is 25.
