(a + b)⁴

= a⁴ + 4a³b + 6a²b² + 4ab³ + b⁴


In this case, your 2x = a and 1/5x = b


Notice that the the x terms cancel out each other if you multiply a by b (2x by 1/5x)

So if you square that , a²b² also has all the x terms cancelled out.

So the term independent of x is 6a²b²

Since this question is asked as a ‘hence’ question, I replaced a and b by the respective terms and write all the five terms out manually.
