Well, then the * is an operator, so
1) -3+-4*8=-3+ -32-8/-4=-3-32+2=-33 as I see it.
I don't get either of your answers, but frankly, I am not certain of the function.
ab minus b divided by a could be
(ab-b)/a or ab - (b/a)

I get the same answers as Mr. Pursley:
<b>If a*b = ab - b/a</b>,
1)-3+-4*8 = -3 + (-4)*8 = 33
2)2*(4*8) = 2*(30) = 45
<b>if a*b = (ab-b)/a</b>,
1)-3+-4*8 = -3 + (-4)*8 = -3 + 10 = 7
2)2*(4*8) = 2*(6) = 3
<b>If a*b = ab - b/a</b>,
1)-3+-4*8 = -3 + (-4)*8 = 33
2)2*(4*8) = 2*(30) = 45
<b>if a*b = (ab-b)/a</b>,
1)-3+-4*8 = -3 + (-4)*8 = -3 + 10 = 7
2)2*(4*8) = 2*(6) = 3
