#128#

#(3 + 1) xx 8 xx 4#

PEMDAS (the order of operations) is shown here:

Using this, the first thing to simplify is the expression inside the parenthesis:
#4 xx 8 xx 4#

Now do multiplication from left to right:
#32 xx 4#

#=128#

Hope this helps!

#128#

Let's simplify our parenthesis first to get

#4xx8xx4#

We can multiply these now to get

#32xx4=128#

Hope this helps!
