Note: It should be 48 instead of 42 because √42 cannot be simplified.

Given:

Consider the given expression is


(√(32)+√(48))/(√(8)+√(12))

To find:

The simplified form of the given expression.

Solution:

We have,


(√(32)+√(48))/(√(8)+√(12))

It can be written as


=(√(16* 2)+√(16* 3))/(√(4* 2)+√(4* 3))


=(4√(2)+4√(3))/(2√(2)+2√(3))


=(4(√(2)+√(3)))/(2(√(2)+√(3)))


=(4)/(2)


=2

Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression is 2.
