The Distributive Property is what you will use first.

4(14c - 10d) - 6(d + 4c) = $4*14c - 4*10d - 6*d - 6*4c$

Simplify: 56c - 40d - 6d - 24c

Combine like terms: 56c - 24c - 40d - 6d = 32c - 46d

$32c-46d$

Distribute $4$ to $14c$ and $-10c$ and distribute $-6$ to $d$ and $4c$

$[4*14c+4*-10d][-6*d+$ $-6*4c]$

$56c-40d-6d-24c$

Identify and combine like terms:

$color(red)(56c)color(blue)(-40d-6d)color(red)(-24c)$

$32c-46d$
