We first calculate the value of the given expression:

$$
32 + 28 = 60
$$

Next, we examine each option to see which one equals 60.

1. $$\,8(4+3) = 8 \times 7 = 56$$  
   (This does not equal 60.)

2. $$\,2(16+13) = 2 \times 29 = 58$$  
   (This does not equal 60.)

3. $$\,4(9+8) = 4 \times 17 = 68$$  
   (This does not equal 60.)

4. $$\,4(8+7) = 4 \times 15 = 60$$  
   (This equals 60.)

Thus, the equivalent expression is:

$$
4(8+7)
$$
The equivalent expression is $$4(8+7)$$.
