Substitute in 4 for m:

4(4²)

 

Due to the order of operations, you must first calculate m². Since you know m = 4, you can simplify 4² to 16.

You now have: 4(16).

 

Then, you simply multiply 4 by 16. You know 16 times 2 is 32, so you double 32 and get 64.

You now have: 64 is the final answer.
