First simplify:

12(x+4) + 14(4x−2)
= 12x + 48 + 56x − 28
= 68x + 20

You can factor that as 4(17x + 5).

Note: "Mixed number" applies to numerical values (e.g., 3 1/2). For an expression with x the simplified form is 68x + 20. If you meant a different problem (e.g., fractions or a numeric x), tell me and I’ll redo it.
