Option B

is the choice equivalent to

Solution:

Step 1:

When we multiply two roots i.e. and the values are multiplied and still kept inside the root.

So × = .

Step 2:

We then multiply the values in the root.

=

Step 3;

We take the values out of the root by splitting up the value.

=

and

So =

When we take values out of the root, we replace it with the square-rooted value on the outside.

= .

Thus option B is correct
