See below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, you can multiply #8# and #11#

#8# #*# #11# #=# #88#

And to check your answer, you can divide #88# by #8#, #11#, or both. When you divide the product of both factors by one of the factors, you should end up with the other factor in the equation.

#88/11# #=# #8#

#88/8# #=# #11#

Hope I helped (:
