Let's get this math done. We have 32 and we're going to multiply it by 8. This is the same as taking 32 and adding it to itself 8 times.
Step 1: 0 + 32 = 32
Step 2: 32 + 32 = 64
Step 3: 64 + 32 = 96
Step 4: 96 + 32 = 128
Step 5: 128 + 32 = 160
Step 6: 160 + 32 = 192
Step 7: 192 + 32 = 224
Step 8: 224 + 32 = 256

So, 32*8 = 256
