$= 56 x - 32$ $= 56x - 32$

$8 \cdot (7 x - 4)$ $color(blue)(8) * (7x-4)$

We multiply $8$ $color(blue)(8)$ with each term within the bracket.

$= 8 \times (7 x - 4)$ $= color(blue)(8) xx (7x-4)$

$= 8 \times (7 x) + 8 \cdot (- 4)$ $= color(blue)(8) xx (7x) + color(blue)(8) * (-4)$

$= 56 x - 32$ $= 56x - 32$

How do you simplify 8(7x−4) 8(7x- 4)?
