To simplify the given expression, we need to perform the operations within the brackets and then apply the remaining multiplication.

Step 1: Simplify the expression inside the brackets:
-86 - 32 = -118

Step 2: Substitute the simplified value back into the original expression:
8[56 - (-118)]

Step 3: Simplify further by subtracting a negative number, which is the same as adding the positive value:
8[56 + 118]

Step 4: Perform the addition within the brackets:
8[174]

Step 5: Finally, multiply 8 by 174 to get the simplified answer:
8 * 174 = 1392

Therefore, the simplified form of the expression 8[56-(-86-32)] is 1392.
