Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The multiplication of the radicals $\sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{8}$ simplifies to $\sqrt{9 \cdot 8}$ or $\sqrt{72}$. Since $\sqrt{72}$ can be further simplified to $\sqrt{36 \cdot 2}$ or $\sqrt{36} \cdot \sqrt{2}$, and $\sqrt{36} = 6$, the final simplified form is $6\sqrt{2}$.
