9sqrt2

Explanation:

First, notice that sqrt9=3, since 3^2=9.

So, the expression more simply becomes:

3xx3sqrt2

Recall that 3sqrt2 is just a multiplication problem between 3 and sqrt2, that is, 3sqrt2=3xxsqrt2.

Hence the expression can be written as

3xx3xxsqrt2

We can simplify 3xx3=9. We cannot do anything with the sqrt2, so our final answer is

9sqrt2
