    Given that x^2-5x=0, to solve it using the complete square method, we need the value of c. The quadratic equation is in the form of:

    ax^2+bx+c=0

    to get c we use the formula:

    c = (b/2a) ^2

    b=-5

    a=1

    thus

    c = (-5/2*1) ^2

    c=25/4

    the number that should be added is 25/4
