Answer:

the simplified form is 6.

B is the correct option.

Explanation:

We have to simplify the expression


6^(1/3)*36^(1/3)

We can rewrite this expression using the rule
x^(1/n)* y^(1/n)=(xy)^(1/n)


6^(1/3)*36^(1/3)\\\\=(6*36)^(1/3)\\\\=(216)^(1/3)

Now, we can write 216 = 6^3


(216)^(1/3)\\\\=(6^3)^(1/3)

Now, using the exponent rule
(x^a)^b=x^(ab)


(6^3)^(1/3)=6^{3*(1)/(3)}\\\\=6

Therefore, the simplified form is 6.

B is the correct option.
