In this case, we will take each component in the first parenthesis and multiply it by each term in the second parenthesis. We will then combine like terms to determine its simplest form.
.
%28c%2Bp%29%28c%5E2-cp%2Bp%5E2%29
%28c%28c%5E2-cp%2Bp%5E2%29%29%2B%28p%28c%5E2-cp%2Bp%5E2%29%29
When we multiply terms with exponents, remember multiply the coefficients, but add their exponents. Since we have no coefficients (1 is implicit), we will only worry about the exponents.

%28c%28c%5E2-cp%2Bp%5E2%29%29%2B%28p%28c%5E2-cp%2Bp%5E2%29%29
%28c%5E3-c%5E2p%2Bcp%5E2%29%2B%28pc%5E2-cp%5E2%2Bp%5E3%29
c%5E3-c%5E2p%2Bcp%5E2%2Bpc%5E2-cp%5E2%2Bp%5E3
Notice:
1. -c%5E2p is the same as to say -pc%5E2, so -c%5E2p cancels with %2Bpc%5E2
2. %2Bcp%5E2 cancels with -cp%5E2
So, our final expression is:
c%5E3%2Bp%5E3
