Answer: 0
=============================================
Work Shown:
m/n = 5
m = 5n
m^2 - 25n^2 = (m)^2 - (5n)^2
m^2 - 25n^2 = (m-5n)(m+5n)
m^2 - 25n^2 = (5n-5n)(5n+5n)
m^2 - 25n^2 = (0n)(10n)
m^2 - 25n^2 = (0)(10n)
m^2 - 25n^2 = 0
-----------------
Another approach:
m/n = 5
m = 5n
m^2 = (5n)^2
m^2 = 25n^2
m^2 - 25n^2 = 0
-----------------
Consider the example that m = 10 and n = 2.
We can see that m/n = 10/2 = 5
Furthermore,
m^2 - 25n^2 = 10^2 - 25*2^2 = 100 - 100 = 0
I'll let you try out other examples.
