When multiplying two binomials, distribute the terms from the left binomial with the right binomial. In class, your teacher probably used the acronym FOIL which is just a tool to help you remember how to do just that.


Multiply the First term in each binomial.

4y times y is 4y2.


Multiply the Outter-most terms of each binomial.

4y times 6 is 24y


Multiply the Innermost terms of each binomial. Look to the middle.

1 times y is 1y.


Multiply the Last term in each binomial.

1 times 6 is 6.


String them together.

4y2 + 24y + 1y + 6


Combine like terms in the middle and it is complete.

4y2 + 25y + 6
