| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{8n-3}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 9n+4\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{8n-3}\right) \cdot \left( 9n+4\right) = 72n^2+32n-27n-12 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 72n^2+ \color{blue}{32n} \color{blue}{-27n} -12 = 72n^2+ \color{blue}{5n} -12 $$ |
