When you're in the multitrack view, go to Edit, Mix Down to file then All waves. Then once it mixes down, go to File, Save As and select mp3.

Highlight the wave before you do any effects

for noise reduction:

on a new track, record FIVE SECONDS of silence - no beat playing, no talking, but obviously have tha microphone on. When you've done that, go to tha edit mode (double click tha 5 seconds you just recorded or use tha button on tha top left), highlight tha 5 seconds (double click on it) and go to edit>noise reduction>noise reduction. Click Get profile from selection, and let it do its thing. Then quit out of that. Delete tha five seconds if you want, but DON'T CLICK ON GET PROFILE FROM SELECTION AGAIN.
Now, when you come to edit ya vocals, tha FIRST THING you should do is highlight all of it and go to edit>noise reduction>noise reduction, and click 'ok' - NOT get profile from selection. This removes only tha background noise - if you just do it from a break in ya vocals, chances are it'll pick up tha beat from ya headphones a bit and remove some frequencies it'd be better to keep.

And you can do it like old Ikey said, but you can also just go to: file>save mixdown as... use mp3 129kbps for tha net, but tha higher tha better for cd's. Wavs are ideal for cds. Good luck
