Step 1.2.1

Multiply $5$ by $- 1$ .

$u^{2} + 5 u^{2} v + 4 u v^{2} - u^{2} - 5 (u^{2} v^{2}) - (4 u v)$

Step 1.2.2

Multiply $4$ by $- 1$ .

$u^{2} + 5 u^{2} v + 4 u v^{2} - u^{2} - 5 (u^{2} v^{2}) - 4 (u v)$

Step 1.3

Remove parentheses.

$u^{2} + 5 u^{2} v + 4 u v^{2} - u^{2} - 5 u^{2} v^{2} - 4 u v$

Step 2

Combine the opposite terms in $u^{2} + 5 u^{2} v + 4 u v^{2} - u^{2} - 5 u^{2} v^{2} - 4 u v$ .
