$128$

$(3 + 1) xx 8 xx 4$

PEMDAS (the order of operations) is shown here:

Using this, the first thing to simplify is the expression inside the parenthesis:
$4 xx 8 xx 4$

Now do multiplication from left to right:
$32 xx 4$

$=128$

Hope this helps!

$128$

Let's simplify our parenthesis first to get

$4xx8xx4$

We can multiply these now to get

$32xx4=128$

Hope this helps!
