Step 1.2.1

Multiply $- 3$ by $- 1$ .

$4 x^{2} y^{2} + 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 4 x y + 3 (x^{2} y^{2}) - (3 x^{2} y) - (2 x y^{2}) - (- 2 x y)$

Step 1.2.2

Multiply $3$ by $- 1$ .

$4 x^{2} y^{2} + 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 4 x y + 3 (x^{2} y^{2}) - 3 (x^{2} y) - (2 x y^{2}) - (- 2 x y)$

Step 1.2.3

Multiply $2$ by $- 1$ .

$4 x^{2} y^{2} + 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 4 x y + 3 (x^{2} y^{2}) - 3 (x^{2} y) - 2 (x y^{2}) - (- 2 x y)$

Step 1.2.4

Multiply $- 2$ by $- 1$ .

$4 x^{2} y^{2} + 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 4 x y + 3 (x^{2} y^{2}) - 3 (x^{2} y) - 2 (x y^{2}) + 2 (x y)$

Step 1.3

Remove parentheses.

$4 x^{2} y^{2} + 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 4 x y + 3 x^{2} y^{2} - 3 x^{2} y - 2 x y^{2} + 2 x y$
