Hi Taylor!

Thank you for reaching out with a question on Wyzant- Ask an Expert!

Based on the instructions for your math problem, you are looking to find the value of n multiplied by the number 8, which is represented with: n x 8.

Now, the letter n in this problem looks like a missing variable, however, the problem also states that n = 7. At this point, it is helpful to rewrite the problem having plugged in the number 7 in place of the n.

n x 8 becomes 7 x 8

Next, when I multiply 7 times 8, I get 56 as my answer, which is the answer to the problem.
