\( -3 \sqrt(20) *\sqrt(15)\)
Ok now the rule goes as follows:
\( \sqrt{a}*\sqrt{b}=\sqrt{a*b}\)
and \(c\sqrt{a}*\sqrt{b}=c\sqrt{a*b}\)
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
Can you apply these rules to your problem?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok ill try and can u tell me if i have found the right answer?
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
Yes definitely :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yessssss :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now what am i supposed to do after that to solve?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
find the multiples of 300 ?
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
Okkk now we have to break it down
For example:
\(\sqrt{28}=\sqrt{7*4}=\sqrt{7*2*2}=2\sqrt{7}\)
Yaaaaaaaaaa
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so gcf and then u square u
it?

Ummm lets first find factors of 300
The way I would begin is 30*10=300
We know that 30=5*6 and 10=5*2
so 300=5*6*5*2
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
Do you follow what I did?
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
hmmmmm 6 can be broken down to 6=3*2
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
Its kind of like we are making a factor tree. Are you familiar with that?
OpenStudy (swissgirl):
So basically 300=3*2*5*5*2
