Starting with the expression:


(4-3m)8

Use the distributive property to rewrite the expression as:


4\cdot8-3m\cdot8

Simplify the product 4*8:


32-3m\cdot8

Simplify the product 3m*8:


32-24m

\huge\text{Hey there!}



\huge\textbf{Use the distributive property to solve}\\\\\huge\textbf{to solve this equation.}



\huge\textbf{If you are unsure what the formula is, it}\\\\\huge\textbf{is:}


\mathsf{a(b + c)}\\\\\mathsf{= a* b + a* c}\\\\\mathsf{= ab + ac}



\huge\textbf{How will we simplify your equation}\\\\\huge\textbf{when it is set up a tad bit differently}\\\\\huge\textbf{a normal distributive equation?}



\huge\textbf{Well, we can make it like the original}\\\\\huge\textbf{way that we normally see it}



\huge\textbf{Here is what I meant:}


\mathsf{(4 - 3m) 8\rightarrow 8(4 - 3m)}



\huge\textbf{Now let us solve for your answer since}\\\\\huge\textbf{since we made it easier to solve for it }\huge\boxed{\downarrow}



\mathsf{8(4 - 3m)}\\\\\mathsf{= 8(4) + 8(-3m)}\\\\\mathsf{= 32 - 24m\rightarrow -24m + 32}



\huge\text{Therefore your answer should be:}


\huge\boxed{\mathsf{-24m + 32}}\huge\checkmark



\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}
