Here are the choices:

Well, think about how else √16 can be written?
try √8√2 right? because √8 times √2 is the same as √16
so now we have
\[3\sqrt[3]{8}\sqrt[3]{2}\]
how can that be simplified?
*hint what is the cubed root of 8?
OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):
above...where I put √8√2 and √16...those should all be CUBED roots, not square roots....all the rest is the same
OpenStudy (anonymous):
8^3 = 192?

not quite....
Cubed root, is not the same as "to the 3rd power"
*example* Cubed root of 27...is 3....definitely different from 27^3 right?
so what is the CUBED ROOT of 8?
*what times itself 3 times = 8?

2? @johnweldon1993
OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):
correct!....so now you have
(3) times (2) times CUBED ROOT of 2
so what is 3 times 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6
OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):
so you'll have
\[6\sqrt[3]{2}\]
looks a lot like answer choice 2
