Answer
$4 \sqrt{3}$
Work Step by Step
Recall, $\sqrt{a}\times \sqrt{b}= \sqrt{a \times b}$. Thus, we can multiply 6 and 8 to obtain the simplified expression:
$\sqrt{6 \times 8}=\sqrt{48}$
In order to simplify a radical, we consider the factors of the number inside of the radical. If any of these factors are perfect squares, meaning that their square root is a whole number, then we can simplify the radical. We know that 16 and 3 are factors of 48. We know that 16 is a perfect square, so we simplify:
$ \sqrt{16} \sqrt{3}=4 \sqrt{3}$
