Answer

Problem

Simplify:
\$ sqrt(48)/2 - 3sqrt(72) - (sqrt(27))/3 \$

Hint

Take multiples of 48,72,27

\$ sqrt(4^2\times3)/2 - 3(sqrt(3^2\times8)) - sqrt(3^2\times3)/3 \$

Step

Canceling square and squareroot

\$ (4sqrt(3))/2 - 3(3sqrt(8)) - (3sqrt(3))/3\$

Step

Then simplify

\$ 2sqrt(3) - 9sqrt(8) - sqrt(3)\$
