2√(7x) \cdot 3√(14x^2)

  • Set up


6√(98x^3)

  • Combine terms through multiplying


6 √(49 \cdot 2 \cdot x^2 \cdot x) = 6√(49x^2 \cdot 2x)

  • Order the terms under the square root to find perfect squares. In this case, we can split 98 into 49 (a square) and 2. We can also split
    x^3 into
    x^2 (a square) and
    x.


6√(49x^2) \cdot √(2x)

  • Split up the square root to isolate the perfect square


6 \cdot 7x \cdot √(2x)

  • Simplify the square root


42x√(2x)

  • Simplify the entire expression through multiplying

The simplified form is
\boxed{42x √(2x)}.
