Answer:

24

Explanation:

If we have two square roots like
√(36)\cdot√(16), we could do this either of two ways.

1. Multiply 36 by 16 and find the square root of that


√(36\cdot16) = √(576) = 24

2. Find the square root of both of them then multiply.


√(36) = 6, √(16) = 4, 6\cdot4 = 24

Hope this helped!
