Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals

[tex]\sqrt{a}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{b}[/tex] ⇔ [tex]\sqrt{ab}[/tex]

Given

[tex]\frac{6\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]

Simplify the denominator

[tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{4(2)}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] = 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Fraction reduces to

[tex]\frac{6\sqrt{2} }{2\sqrt{2} }[/tex] ← cancel the radical

= [tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex] = 3
