Answer:

-6√3 - 9√2

Explanation:

So you distribute like normal:

-3√3 times 2 is -6√3

-3√3 times √6 is -3√18

You can simplify -3√18 into -9√2

(because 9 can be squared into 3 and you can multiply the 3 with the current 3 into 9)

(Also you have to divide 9 out of 18 since you are simplifying)

So the answer will be -6√3-9√2

Hope this helps!
