Step 1.1

Move $20 p q$ .

$25 p^{2} - 12 q^{3} + 20 p q$

Step 1.2

Reorder $25 p^{2}$ and $- 12 q^{3}$ .

$- 12 q^{3} + 25 p^{2} + 20 p q$

Step 2

Factor $- 1$ out of $- 12 q^{3}$ .

$- (12 q^{3}) + 25 p^{2} + 20 p q$

Step 3

Factor $- 1$ out of $25 p^{2}$ .

$- (12 q^{3}) - (- 25 p^{2}) + 20 p q$

Step 4

Factor $- 1$ out of $20 p q$ .

$- (12 q^{3}) - (- 25 p^{2}) - (- 20 p q)$

Step 5

Factor $- 1$ out of $- (12 q^{3}) - (- 25 p^{2})$ .

$- (12 q^{3} - 25 p^{2}) - (- 20 p q)$

Step 6

Factor $- 1$ out of $- (12 q^{3} - 25 p^{2}) - (- 20 p q)$ .

$- (12 q^{3} - 25 p^{2} - 20 p q)$
