(a) Without using tables or calculator, simplify : \(\frac{0.6 \times 32 \times 0.004}{1.2 \times 0.008 \times 0.16}\), leaving the answer in standard form (scientific notation). (b) In the diagram, \(\overline{EF}\) is parallel to \(\overline{GH}\). If \(< AEF = 3x^\circ, < ABC = 120^\circ\) and \(< CHG = 7x^\circ\), find the value of \(< GHB\).
