Video Summary

The problem involves determining the product of numbers in 8 grey circles positioned around several interconnected squares. Each square displays the product of its four vertex numbers. To find the product of the grey circle numbers, identify the products of numbers inside the squares (labeled a, b, c, d, and e in the problem). The key is to calculate \((a \cdot b \cdot d)/c^2\), which accounts for the double counting of the white circle numbers. By doing this calculation, you get the final answer of 40 as the product of the numbers in the grey circles.
