7 + (6 × 25 + 3) Start inside Parentheses, and then use Exponents First
7 + (150 + 3) Then Multiply
7 + (153) Then Add
7 + 153 Parentheses completed, last operation is an Add
160 DONE !
And you call me a duffer? 160?? You transposed the 5 and the 2. The answer is 322. The parenthesis are superfluous:

7 + (6 × 52 + 3) = 7 + 6 × 52 + 3
