Answer:

5+(2)*(sq root 6)

Explanation:

This is pretty simple, a given is that the square root of 25 is 5, so you already have one of your numbers. Since the square root of 24 is not a perfect square, it must be reduced and then added separately to 5. The sq root of 24 is reduced to 2 multiplied by the square root of 6.
