I'm not sure how to find zeros and multipilicities

If p(x) is a polynomial, then the zeros of p(x) are the values of x that satisfy p(x)=0.

So for (1), the zeros of f(x)=(x-4)(x-1)(x+3) are the solutions to

(x-4)(x-1)(x+3)=0\implies x=4,x=1,x=-3

You can think of the multiplicity of each root as the number of times a root satisfies this equation. In this case, the multiplicity of each root is 1, because there is only one factor of x-4 or x-1 or x+3.

For (2), the zeros of g(x) are the solutions to

(x+1)(x-2)^2(x-4)=0\implies x=-1,x=2,x=4

and the multiplicity of the zero x=2 is 2 because there are two factors of x-2 in g(x). The multiplicity of the other roots would be 1.
