Question

If x = √125 × √30 ×√6, then x is equal to:

A.

150

B.

136

C.

175

D.

125

Correct option is A

First, break each term under the square root into prime factors or simpler radical forms:
1. 125=25×5=55.\sqrt{125} = \sqrt{25 \times 5} = 5\sqrt{5}.
2. 30=5×6=5×6.\sqrt{30} = \sqrt{5 \times 6} = \sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{6}.
3.6is6. \sqrt{6} is \sqrt{6}​.
So,
125×30=(55)×(5 6)\sqrt{125} \times \sqrt{30} = (5\sqrt{5}) \times (\sqrt{5}\,\sqrt{6}) =5×(5×5)×6=5×5×6=256.= 5 \times(\sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}) \times \sqrt{6} = 5 \times 5 \times \sqrt{6} = 25\sqrt{6}​.
Multiply by \sqrt{6}​:
256×6=25×625\sqrt{6} \times \sqrt{6} = 25 \times 6​ = 150.
