\left(-\frac{1}{4}x\right)^{2}-\left(2y\right)^{2}
Multiplication can be transformed into difference of squares using the rule: \left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right)=a^{2}-b^{2}.
\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{2}x^{2}-\left(2y\right)^{2}
Expand \left(-\frac{1}{4}x\right)^{2}.
\frac{1}{16}x^{2}-\left(2y\right)^{2}
Calculate -\frac{1}{4} to the power of 2 and get \frac{1}{16}.
\frac{1}{16}x^{2}-2^{2}y^{2}
Expand \left(2y\right)^{2}.
\frac{1}{16}x^{2}-4y^{2}
Calculate 2 to the power of 2 and get 4.
