To multiply two square roots together, you can simply multiply the numbers inside the square roots. In this case:

√6 * √27 = √(6 * 27)

Now, you can calculate the product inside the square root:

√(6 * 27) = √162

To simplify the square root further, you can find the prime factors of 162 and take out pairs of the same prime factors from under the square root:

162 = 2 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3

Now, pair up the prime factors:

√(2 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3) = √(2 * 3^2 * 3^2) = √(2 * (3^2)^2) = √(2 * 9^2) = √(2 * 81) = √(162)

So, √6 * √27 = √162, which simplifies to 9√2.
