Answer

$\color{blue}{(p-2q+10)(p-2q-10))}$

Work Step by Step

Note that $100=10^2$. Thus, the given binomial is equivalent to: $=(p-2q)^2-10^2$ Factor the binomial using the formula $a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)$ where $a=p-2q$ and $y=10$ to obtain: $=[(p-2q)+10[(p-2q)-10] \\=\color{blue}{(p-2q+10)(p-2q-10))}$
