Explanation:

To multiply these two terms you multiply each individual term in the left parenthesis by each individual term in the right parenthesis.

`(color(red)(4p) + color(red)(q))(color(blue)(m) + color(blue)(n))` becomes:

`(color(red)(4p) xx color(blue)(m)) + (color(red)(4p) xx color(blue)(n)) + (color(red)(q) xx color(blue)(m)) + (color(red)(q) xx color(blue)(n))`

`4p m + 4pn + qm + qn`
