Solution

Step: Simplifying the given expression
Given, 4 (3𝑥 − 8) − 3 (5𝑥 + 3) − 2 (6𝑥 − 8)
Using BODMAS Rule, we have:
4 (3𝑥 − 8) − 3 (5𝑥 + 3) − 2 (6𝑥 − 8)
= 4 × 3𝑥 − 4 × 8 − 3 × 5𝑥 − 3 × 3 − 2 × 6𝑥 + 2 × 8
=12𝑥 − 15𝑥 − 12𝑥 − 32 − 9+ 16 [Grouping like terms]
= 0 − 15𝑥 − 41 + 16
= − 15𝑥 − 25 = − 5 (3𝑥 + 5)
Hence, the answer is − 15𝑥 − 25 𝑜𝑟 − 5(3𝑥 +5).
