It can't be simplified any more. That is the answer, 3*4X or 12x

To find the product of 3 and 4X, you simply multiply 3 by 4X. This can be written as 3 * 4X or 3(4X). To calculate the result, you multiply the coefficients (3 * 4 = 12) and keep the variable term as 4X. Therefore, the answer is 12X.
It's easiest to break this into parts. First look at the numbers being multiplied (4 times a number). Since you don't know this number, you have to use x. So 4 times x is 4x. Then you need to know what 3 less than 4x is, so you would simply subtract, giving you 4x-3.
4x=10+3x or 10+3x=4x
-3 + 4x
4X-3
4x + 3 doesn't factor. It is in its simplest form.
