(3m+5n)(9m²-15mn+25n²)

1) Let's factorize 27m³ +125n³.

27m³ +125n³ Let's use x³ +y³ product to factorize that

x³ +y³ = (x +y)(x²-xy +y²)

2) So let's rewrite it, since 3³ = 27 and 5³ = 125

27m³ +125n³ =

Plug x =3m and y = 5n into those factors (x +y)(x²-xy +y²)

27m³ +125n³= (3m + 5n)(3²m² -5n*3m +5²n²)

27m³ +125n³= (3m+5n)(9m² - 15mn +25n²)

3) So the answer is

(3m+5n)(9m²-15mn+25n²)
