Answer:

√36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: √3 * √12

Remember by law of surds:

  • √a = a¹/² *¹

We know √(12) = √(3*4)

We know

  • √a *√b = √(a*b)

Therefore

  • √3 * √(3*4)
  • √(3*3*4)

Note that

3² = 3*3

4 = 2²

  • √(3²*2²)
  • 3²*¹/²*2²*¹/²
  • 3*2 = 6

We know √36 = 6 because √36 = 6²*¹/² = 6.

Hence

  • 6 = √36

Option B looks good
