$$3\sqrt{18x^2}$$
@jhonyy9

jhonyy9 · Answer

18 = ? 
how can you rewrite the 18 like a product of a square number and a  number

mxddi3 · Answer

i took the sqrt of 18 and made it into 
$$\sqrt{9} * \sqrt{2}$$
then the sqrt of 9 is 3 
that's how the teacher taught us. is that correct.

jhonyy9 · Answer

yes correct

jhonyy9 · Answer

so how will get simplified this all ?

mxddi3 · Answer

so then she told us to find the sqrt of x^2 and i got x

is that right?

jhonyy9 · Answer

yes

jhonyy9 · Answer

and the sqrt of 9 = ?

mxddi3 · Answer

3

jhonyy9 · Answer

exactly ansd so inside radical will remain just what ?

mxddi3 · Answer

is it 2? because the sqrt of 18 was $$\sqrt{9} * \sqrt{2}$$
and sqrt 2 can't be simplified ?

jhonyy9 · Answer

yes correct

so now please write me here how will be this 3sqrt18x^2 simplified ?

mxddi3 · Answer

but wait, what about the 3 in front of the radical? so i multiply it with the 3 from the sqrt of 9?

jhonyy9 · Answer

yes - what is the problem with this 3 ? nothing

mxddi3 · Answer

ok so we will have 
$$3*3x \sqrt{2}$$

and will that be 
$$9x \sqrt{2}$$

jhonyy9 · Answer

perfect - congrats - hope you understand it now sure right

mxddi3 · Answer

yes, thank you!!
