And what do you do with the number inside the when you want to get rid of it?

You literally must distribute the coefficient before you can do anything with what is inside to remove Brackets, as per The Distributive Law, a(b+c)=(ab+ac), now you can work on getting rid of what is inside.

And what do you do with and and the b and then the a and the c? If you want to simplify the equation?

BTW, there's no "the a and the b" and "the a and the c", there's ab and ac, which need to be added. If a=2, b=3, and c=4, we have 2(3+4)=(6+8)=14
