Answer: 12 sqrt(5)

Step-by-step explanation:
First simplify:
= Sqrt(45)
= sqrt(9*5) sqrt of 9 is 3 so bring out 3
= 3sqrt(5)

= 2sqrt(20)
= 2sqrt(4*5) sqrt of 4 is 2 so bring that out and multiply it by 2
= 4sqrt(5)

= 5 sqrt(5) is already simplified

= 3sqrt(5) + 4 sqrt(5) + 5sqrt(5)
= 12 sqrt(5)
