Greetings!

When multiplying two roots together, you can rearrange the equation so that the roots are next to each other and so are the whole numbers:

2 x 3 x
√(3) x
√(12)

This means that 2 x 3 is simple, = 6,

But when multiplying
√(3) x √(12) you simply multply the two numbers and put them in a square root:


√(3) x √(12) =
√(36)

But this can be square rooted to 6, which then means that the equation is now:

2 x 3 x 6 = 36

So the simplified form is 36.


Hope this helps!
