What is the factorised form of 25p² − 30pq + 9q²?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (5p − 3q)²

The direct answer is A: (5p − 3q)². Use the identity (u − v)² = u² − 2uv + v². The first term 25p² is (5p)², and the last term 9q² is (3q)². Their doubled product is 2(5p)(3q) = 30pq, and the given middle term is negative. Hence the correct sign between the two terms is minus: (5p − 3q)². Expanding confirms 25p² − 30pq + 9q². Option B would produce +30pq, so its sign is wrong. Option C takes incorrect square roots and changes the coefficients drastically. Option D expands to 25p² − 50pq + 9q², so its middle coefficient is incorrect. A useful check is to take the square roots of the first and last terms first, then use the middle-term sign.
