I guess your x means multiplication sign...if so, next time use *.
4d+%2A+d+%2Ad+...here you have to multiply d three times with itself and use exponent rule: when you are multiplying,and the bases are the same,you ADD the exponents

d%5E1%2Ad%5E1%2Ad%5E1=d%5E%281%2B1%2B1%29=d%5E3
so, in you case we will have: 4d+%2A+d+%2Ad=4d%5E3+
