Final answer:

To solve the inequality x > 1 × 1 × 1.2 × 4 × 8, we simplify the right-hand side first. We compare the given numbers to the solution x > 38.4 and determine which one is not part of the solution. The number that is not part of the solution is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality x > 1 × 1 × 1.2 × 4 × 8, we simplify the right-hand side first. 1 × 1 × 1.2 × 4 × 8 equals 38.4. So the inequality becomes x > 38.4. Now we can compare the given numbers to the solution x > 38.4 and determine which one is not part of the solution.

a) 32 is not greater than 38.4, so it is not part of the solution.
b) 64 is greater than 38.4, so it is part of the solution.
c) 128 is greater than 38.4, so it is part of the solution.
d) 256 is greater than 38.4, so it is part of the solution.

Therefore, the number that is not part of the solution is 32.
