Conner Vargas · Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Neither one of the two given numbers are rational. sqrt (3) * sqrt (2) equals the square root of 6. All three numbers are irrational.

You can try it for yourself.

sqrt (2) = 1.4142

sqrt (3) = 1.732

1.4142 * 1.732 = 2.4493

sqrt (6) = 2.4493

The difference is a rounding error.

So the answer is B. sqrt (6) is totally irrational.
