Answer:


√(27) + √(48) - √(12) \\ √(3 * 3 * 3) + √(2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3) - √(2 * 2 * 3) \\ 3 √(3) + 4 √(3) - 2 √(3) \\ 7 √(3) - 2 √(3) \\ \boxed{5 √(3)}

5√3 is the right answer.

Answer:

5
√(3)

Explanation:

Using the rule of radicals


√(a) ×
√(b)
√(ab)

Simplifying the radicals


√(27) =
√(9(3)) =
√(9) ×
√(3) = 3
√(3)


√(48) =
√(16(3)) =
√(16) ×
√(3) = 4
√(3)


√(12) =
√(4(3)) =
√(4(3)) =
√(4) ×
√(3) = 2
√(3)

Then


√(27) +
√(48) -
√(12)

= 3
√(3) + 4
√(3) - 2
√(3)

= 5
√(3)
