Hello there. To solve this question, we have to remember some properties about radicals.

Given the following radical expression:


√(16\cdot4)

We want to determine which is the option that is equal to it.

The first property we can use to determine the answer directly is:


√(a\cdot b)=√(a)\cdot√(b)

Hence it is equal to


√(16\cdot4)=√(16)\cdot√(4)

You can also notice that, calculating the value, none of the other answers will be correct since
