GIven:


3√(8)

Required:

We need to find the equivalent expression

Step-by-step explanation:

let


\begin{gathered} x=3√(8) \\ x^2=72 \end{gathered}

now just we need to check that which square is 72

1)


\begin{gathered} a=√(3)√(12) \\ a^2=36\text{ not possible} \end{gathered}

2)


\begin{gathered} b=√(6)√(12) \\ b^2=72\text{ possible} \end{gathered}

3)


\begin{gathered} c=72 \\ c^2=5184\text{ not possible} \end{gathered}

4)


\begin{gathered} d=√(3)√(24) \\ d^2=72\text{ possible} \end{gathered}

5)


\begin{gathered} e=√(6)√(24) \\ e^2=144\text{ not possible} \end{gathered}

6)


\begin{gathered} f=√(9)√(8) \\ f^2=72\text{ possible} \end{gathered}

Final answer:


\begin{gathered} √(6)√(12) \\ √(3)√(24) \\ √(9)√(8) \end{gathered}

are equivalent to given expression
