Remember the order of operations. The first step in this problem will be to solve the exponent.
Take (2x)^3. Remember that since there are parentheses around 2x, that means you have to cube 2 and x.
(2x)^3 = 2^3 * x^3 = 8x^3
Now multiply that answer by 4 to finish simplifying.
8x^3 * 4 = 32 x^3
Your answer should be: 32x^3
