Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression (-8)(10-5-8), the -8 is right next to the (10-5-8), so the -8 would multiply the rest of the expression.

Some examples: 2(3)  = 2 × 3

6(2 + 4) = 6 × (2 + 4)

6(1 - 2(3)) = 6 × (1 - 2 × 3)

(-7)(9 - 4 - 7) = (-7) × (9 - 4 - 7)
the answer is -8 i believe
