Fill in the Blank

A data analyst is auditing a formula used to calculate a normalized performance metric, represented by the complex rational expression n4nn+51n+5+1n5\frac{n-\frac{4n}{n+5}}{\frac{1}{n+5}+\frac{1}{n-5}}. When following the procedure to simplify this expression by writing it as division, the expression eventually becomes n(n+1)(n+5)(n5)2n(n+5)\frac{n(n+1)(n+5)(n-5)}{2n(n+5)}. At this stage, the common factors that are divided out from both the numerator and the denominator are nn and ______.
