You don't need to unzip them, just leave them as .zip files.

It's already well documented, but I will help you since you seem very new, and no one should be without abilities to customize simply becuase they're new.

Roms need to stay as .zip files. They need to be on the root of your sd card, meaning on the card, not in any folder.
Then you reboot into recovery (Hold volume down and power) and then select apply update .zip.
