Answer: 8,000 cents

Explanation: To solve this problem, let's first begin by multiplying how rolls of quarters there are × how many quarters are in each roll.

Since there are 8 rolls of quarters and each roll contains 40 quarters, we multiply 8 × 40 and we get a product of 320.

Now, the question we should be asking ourselves is what is the total value of 320 quarters.

We know we have 320 quarters and each quarter is worth 25 cents so we just take 320 × 25 which gives us 8,000 cents.

The 320 represents our number of quarters, this 25 represents the value of each quarter, and this 75 represents their total value.
