1. **State the problem:** You want to find out how many apples you packed if you packed 0 boxes with 8 apples in each box. 2. **Formula used:** The total number of apples packed is given by the formula: $$\text{Total apples} = \text{Number of boxes} \times \text{Apples per box}$$ 3. **Apply the values:** Here, the number of boxes is 0 and apples per box is 8, so: $$\text{Total apples} = 0 \times 8$$ 4. **Calculate:** Multiplying any number by 0 results in 0: $$0 \times 8 = 0$$ 5. **Conclusion:** Therefore, you packed 0 apples in total because you packed no boxes.
