Answer:


160√(3)

Explanation:

Step 1: Know what the question is asking

  • product ⇒ means to multiply

Step 2: Set up the problem


  • (8√(8) )(5√(24) )
  • *Note: Multiplication is commutative ⇒ order doesn't matter, terms can be rearranged and the answer remains the same

  1. 8*√(8) *5*√(24)

  2. 8*5*√(8) *√(24)

  3. 40*√(8) *√(24)
  • *Note: It is easier to further simplify by simplifying the square roots before multiplying them together.

  1. 40*√(8) *√(24)

  2. 40*√(4) *√(2) *√(4) *√(6)

  3. 40*2*√(2) *2*√(6)

  4. 40*2*2*√(2) *√(6)

  5. 40*4*√(2) *√(6)

  6. 80*√(12)

  7. 80*√(4) *√(3)

  8. 80*2*√(3)

  9. 160√(3)
