Math Problem Statement

Evaluate the expression: 1 - 4 × (-8)

Solution

The expression provided in the image is:

14×(8)1 - 4 \times (-8)

To solve this:

  1. First, perform the multiplication operation. Remember that multiplying a negative number by a negative gives a positive result: 4×(8)=324 \times (-8) = -32

  2. Now, subtract the result from 1: 1(32)=1+32=331 - (-32) = 1 + 32 = 33

Thus, the value of the expression is:

33\boxed{33}
