A. Since they all have the same numbers inside the root simply just solve the outer numbers which is 7-2+1-3 = 3root 3

Answer:

3
√(3) and
√(7)

Explanation:

Simplifying surds is similar to collecting like terms in algebra.

If the surds have the same value then collect them by adding/ subtracting their coefficients.

(a)


√(3) (7 - 2 + 1 - 3)

=
√(3) (3)

= 3
√(3)

(b)


√(7) (5 + 4 - 8)

=
√(7) (1)

=
√(7)
