Distribute the 4 to the term inside the parentheses to get 32b
Explanation:
First, lets rewrite the equation slightly:

4 \cdot (8 b)

Expanding this, you could distribute the 4 as such:

4 \cdot (8 b) = 8 b + 8 b + 8 b + 8 b = 32 b

OR you could just multiply the numeric coefficients together:

(4 \cdot 8) b = 32 b

Given:

(8 \times b) \times 4

Multiply 8 and 4 to get 32.

\frac{d}{d b} (32 b)

The derivative of

a x^{n} is n a x^{n - 1}

32 b^{1 - 1}

Subtract 1 from 1.

32 b^{0}

For any term t except 0,

t^{0} = 1

32 \times 1

For any term t,

t \times t = t and 1 t = t

.
