Procedural Documentation for Polynomial Factoring

You are updating a technical training manual for a team of junior analysts who use mathematical modeling to project resource requirements. To ensure they understand the standard procedure for simplifying expressions, describe the four-step process for factoring the expression 5x325x25x^3 - 25x^2 by extracting the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). In your description, clearly identify the GCF, explain how the variable power was determined, and provide the final factored form of the expression.
