Okay you want to F.O.I.L--this was the way I was taught this years ago. I don't know if teachers still teach it this way but, I'll show you anyways. :)

(3m-n) (2m-5n)
F = First terms = 3m * 2m = 6m²
O = Outside terms = 3m * -5n = -15mn
I = Inside terms = -n * 2m = -2mn
L = Last terms = -n * -5n = 5n²

Now, write these down together and simplify:
= 6m² - 15mn - 2mn + 5n²
= 6m² - 17mn +5n²

I hope this helps! =)

Good luck!

Love,
Mary ♥

circulate -5n to the different side so uhave 3n on my own and -5n variations to 5n so 3m=9+5n now u desire to locate m u cant be attentive to its actually value considering that there r 2 unknowns yet u can set equation so m=(9+5n)/3 notice: 3 prolonged m so while u moved it to the different side it replaced to branch u can simplify this m=9/3+5n/3 m=3+5n/3 the two one is wonderful

FOIL (first, outter, inner, last)
(3m-n)(2m-5n)
6m^2-15mn-2mn+5n^2
6m^2-17mn+5n^2

6m squared - 15mn - 2mn + 5n squared
6m squared -17mn + 5n squared

That's what I got

That's all. No other side of the equation? How will I know what m and n equal?
