See the entire simplification process below:

Explanation:

First, rewrite the expression to group like terms:

#4color(red)(g) + 3color(blue)(h) + 2color(red)(g) - 3color(blue)(h)# becomes:

#4color(red)(g) + 2color(red)(g) + 3color(blue)(h) - 3color(blue)(h) ->#

#(4 + 2)color(red)(g) + (3 - 3)color(blue)(h) ->#

#6color(red)(g) + 0color(blue)(h) ->#

#6color(red)(g) + 0 ->#

#6g#
