"The product of 8 and a number y multiplied by 9"

9(8y) is the expression that has been given in word form.

However, as the two constants do not share a common multiple, the expression cannot be simplified further.

9(8y) = 72y
You can multiply 9 • 8 because when multiplying, it does not need to be like terms. When you are adding or subtracting monomials, only when it is in like terms can it be simplified.
