2x^2-7x+5=0
Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to have 1 as the coefficient of the first term :
x2-(7/2)x+(5/2) = 0
Subtract 5/2 from both side of the equation :
x2-(7/2)x = -5/2
x2-2(7/4)x = -5/2
x2-2(7/4)x +49/16= -5/2+49/16
(x-(7/4))^2 =( -40+49)/16
(x-(7/4))^2 = 9/16
(x-(7/4))^2 -9/16=0
(x-(7/4))^2 -(3/4)^2=0
(x-7/4-3/4) (x-7/4+3/4)=0
(x-10/4)(x-1)=0
x-10/4=0
x=10/4=5/2
x-1=0
x=1
