You would use order of operations: PEMDAS
P(parenthesis) E(exponents) MD(multiplication/division) AS(addition/subtraction)
with MD and AS order doesnt matter.
8(5-32) you would start with inside the Parenthesis for "P" so (5-32)=(-27)
next you would go to the E but because you dont have an exponent you go to the next step with is the "MD" you have multiplication so next would be 8(-27) and 8 multiplied by -27 is: 8(-27)= -216
ANSWER: -216
