Question

What is Y multiplied by the product of 8 and x?

Answer 1

This would be written as `y(8x)`.

Explanation:

This can't be solved because there are two variables, but it can be written as `y(8x)`. According to the order of operations, anything in parentheses should be solved first, and then multiplied.

To solve this, one would multiply 8 by `x`, and multiply their product by `y`.
