1. **State the problem:** Subtract the polynomial \((4m^2 + 6m + 1)\) from \((6m^2 + 8m + 6)\). 2. **Write the expression:** $$ (6m^2 + 8m + 6) - (4m^2 + 6m + 1) $$ 3. **Distribute the minus sign to the second polynomial:** $$ 6m^2 + 8m + 6 - 4m^2 - 6m - 1 $$ 4. **Group like terms:** $$ (6m^2 - 4m^2) + (8m - 6m) + (6 - 1) $$ 5. **Simplify each group:** $$ 2m^2 + 2m + 5 $$ 6. **Final answer:** $$ 2m^2 + 2m + 5 $$ This is the result of subtracting the two polynomials.
