\huge\text{Hey there!}



\large\text{EQUATION \#1}\\\\\mathsf{8*3+4}\\\mathsf{= \bold{24} + 4}\\\mathsf{= \bf 24}\\\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\textsf{24}}}\huge\checkmark



\large\text{EQUATION \#2}\\\\\mathsf{8*(3 + 4)}\\\mathsf{= 8(3 + 4)}\\\mathsf{= 8(3) + 8(4)}\\\mathsf{\bf = 24 + 32}\\\mathsf{= \bf 56}\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{56}}}\huge\checkmark



\huge\textbf{THE OVERALL ANSWER..}


\huge\boxed{\text{Thus, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{\bf 8* (3+4)}} is the greater}}\\\\\huge\boxed{\text{one because it gave you \underline{56} \& the other one gave}}\\\huge\boxed{\text{you \underline{24}}}\huge\checkmark
