To determine which sport corresponds to the expression 4×8, we first need to understand what the circles represent in the picture graph: each circle represents 4 students.

From the information provided:

  • Football has 6 circles: 6 × 4 = 24 students
  • Softball has 4 circles: 4 × 4 = 16 students
  • Hockey has 8 circles: 8 × 4 = 32 students
  • Swimming has 3 circles: 3 × 4 = 12 students

The expression 4×8 equals 32, which corresponds to the number of students who played hockey.

Therefore, the correct response is Hockey.
