There are two ways: Either mark some part of a formula, then type e.g.
'M-x math-extern maple evalf'  to call Maple's eval f on that part and
substituted the result in place of the marked bit, -or-
don't mark anything and type 'M-x math-extern maple evalf' to get 'some
sensible part' evaluated. This is usually the part behind the last '=', but
if there is no '=', than the whole formula is used.

Everything taken with a grain of salt..
