$24 a^{2} - 18 a b$ $24a^2 - 18ab$

Explanation:

To simplify this, we need to use the Distributive Property of Multiplication. Basically, we need to multiply the outside term by the individual terms inside the parentheses, then combine the products:

$3 a \cdot 8 a = 3 \cdot a \cdot 8 \cdot a = 3 \cdot 8 \cdot a \cdot a = 24 a^{2}$ $3a * 8a = 3 * a * 8 * a = 3 * 8 * a * a = 24a^2$
$3 a \cdot$ $3a *$ - $6 b = 3 \cdot a \cdot$ $6b = 3 * a *$ - $6 \cdot b = 3 \cdot$ $6 * b = 3 *$ - $6 \cdot a \cdot b =$ $6 * a * b =$ - $18 a b$ $18ab$
