This problem is quite simple if you know how to multiply variables and whole numbers.
Explanation:
(8 • b) • 4
= (8b) • 4
= 32b
At the end, if you test b as a real number (e.g 2), the final answer will give you the same answer as the starting expression:
(8 • 2) • 4
= 16 • 4
= 64
32(2)
= 64
Hopefully you will understand my explications!
