I need help with the gears on my mountain bike, can someone please help me.

I have a 24″ 21 speed Magna Mountain bike, and this is my first time riding a mountain bike/ any kind of bike.

I’m trying to figure out how the gears work, Its hard for me to go up hill,
does anybody know what gears i should put the bike on.

The left handle bar has 3 gear numbers and between each number it has other clicks cause you can hear them clicking.

and the right one has 7 gear numbers

which ones are for uphill and which ones are for down hill

Can someone please help me, its really frustrating to figure this bike riding stuff out
