① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{4a+2b}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 5a+3b\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{4a+2b}\right) \cdot \left( 5a+3b\right) = 20a^2+12ab+10ab+6b^2 $$ |
② | Combine like terms: $$ 20a^2+ \color{blue}{12ab} + \color{blue}{10ab} +6b^2 = 20a^2+ \color{blue}{22ab} +6b^2 $$ |
