Documenting the Procedure for Radical Simplification

You are assisting in the creation of a technical reference guide for junior lab technicians. Your task is to provide a written summary of the standard procedure used to simplify the expression (8x3)(3x)(\sqrt{8x^3})(\sqrt{3x}). In your response, list the two primary mathematical properties required to combine the terms into a single radical and describe the sequence of steps used to extract perfect square factors to reach the final simplified form, $2x^2\sqrt{6}$.
