    Convert 10% into a decimal

    (0.1) ^{2} - (5%) ^{2}

    Remove parentheses around 0.1

    0.1^{2} - (5%) ^{2}

    Raise 0.1 to the power 2 to get 0.1

    0.01 - (5%) ^{2}

    Convert 5% to a decimal

    0.01 - (0.05) ^{2}

    Remove parentheses around 0.05

    0.01-0.05^{2}

    Raise 0.05 to the power of 2 to get 0.0025

    0.01-1*0.0025

    Multiply - 1 by 0.0025 to get - 0.0025

    0.01-0.0025

    Subtract 0.0025 from 0.01 to get 0.0075

    You Answer is: 0.0075
