5s-25/s^2-25 need help

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \frac{5s-25 }{s^2-25} }\) Factor the numerator and the denominator. For the numerator I will tell you that both terms have a "5" in common. For the denominator, use the rule: \(\color{black}{\rm g^2-f^2=(g-f)(g+f)}\)

5/s+5 would that be my answer
