<u>Given expression is </u>

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\dfrac{5 \times {25}^{n + 1} - 25 \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {25}^{n + 1} }$

can be rewritten as

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{5 \times { {(5}^{2} )}^{n + 1} - {5}^{2} \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {( {5}^{2} )}^{n + 1} }$

We know,

$\purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ {( {x}^{m} )}^{n} \: = \: {x}^{mn}}}} \\$

And

$\purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \: \: {x}^{m} \times {x}^{n} = {x}^{m + n} \: }}} \\$

So, using this identity, we

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{5 \times {5}^{2n + 2} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 3 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{{5}^{2n + 2 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 4} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

can be further rewritten as

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{{5}^{2n + 2 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 2 + 2} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{ {5}^{2n + 2} (5 - 1)}{ {5}^{2n + 2} ( {5}^{2} - 1)}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{4}{25 - 1}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{4}{24}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{6}$

<u>Hence, </u>

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \dfrac{5 \times {25}^{n + 1} - 25 \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {25}^{n + 1} } = \frac{1}{6} }}$
