It means that you distribute (multiply) what is outside of the parentheses to each term within the parens..
Are you finished with the little game you're playing, by the way?

You distribute the 4
making your equation
(4*2x)+(4*3)
8x+12

Distribute the 4. 4(2x+3) = (4)(2x) + (4)*(3)= 8x+12

To simplify this expression, you must multiply everything in the parenthesies by 4. So you have:
4(2x) + 4(3) = 8x+12.
The answer is 8x+12. You had to distribute 4 to both terms. Hope this helps.

Well... first you have to multiply 4 by 2x which would be 8x and then 4 by 3 which would be 12 which leaves you with your answer of 8x+12.
