Download the chosen zip file. You don't need to uncompress it.
Download and install Etcher from balena.io : https://www.balena.io/etcher/. It is a free open source program for flashing disk images to memory cards. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux.
Once installed, launch Etcher. You should get the next window :
