Answer:

-8G+24H-32K

Explanation:

The distributive property tells us that we must multiply the number that is outside the parentheses by each of the elements inside the parentheses:

the original expression we have is:

8 (- G + 3H - 4K)

Using distributive property (multiplying 8 by each component of the parenthesis):

8(-G)+8(3H)+8(-4k)

and then solving the operations we have:

-8G+24H-32K
