Simplifying
(3u + -1)(8 + u) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 3u)(8 + u) = 0

Multiply (-1 + 3u) * (8 + u)
(-1(8 + u) + 3u * (8 + u)) = 0
((8 * -1 + u * -1) + 3u * (8 + u)) = 0
((-8 + -1u) + 3u * (8 + u)) = 0
(-8 + -1u + (8 * 3u + u * 3u)) = 0
(-8 + -1u + (24u + 3u2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1u + 24u = 23u
