Answer:


4√(3)

Explanation:

Let's simplify all our terms first, starting with root 12 and root 75.


√(12) = 2√(3)


√(75) =5√(3)


2√(3)- 5√(3)

Now subtract, since both roots are equal, combine like terms.


(2-5)√(3)


-3√(3)

Now we have to add what we have to root 147. Simplify root 147.


√(147) =7√(3)


-3√(3) +7√(3)

Like before, both our roots are equal, so combine like terms.


(-3+7)√(3)


4√(3)
