5sqrt(14)

Explanation:

Introductory note: sqrt(axxb) " is the same as "sqrt(a)xxsqrt(b)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Given:" "sqrt10" "xx" "sqrt35

Write as: " "sqrt(2xx5)" "xx" "sqrt(5xx7)

Which is also the same as:" "sqrt2xxsqrt5xxsqrt5xxsqrt7

But sqrt5xxsqrt5 = 5 giving:" "5sqrt2xxsqrt7

but this is the same as:" "5sqrt(2xx7)" "=" "5sqrt(14)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Check:

" "5sqrt(14) ~~18.70828......

sqrt(10)xxsqrt(35) ~~ 18.70828......
