Answer:

3

Explanation:

To solve the equation (8 times (7 - x) = 32), we can follow these steps:

1. Distribute the 8 on the left-hand side:

(56 - 8x = 32)

2. Subtract 56 from both sides to isolate the variable:

(-8x = -24)

3. Divide both sides by -8 to solve for (x):

(x = 3)

So, (8 times (7 - 3) = 32) is true when (x = 3).
