Addition and subtraction of surds

Two or more surds can be added or subtracted if they are in the same basic form.

E.g

• a√b+c√b = (a+c)√b

• a√b-c√b = (a-c)√b

Using the above example,

Given:

• √75+√48-2√675

Express the surds to the same basic form

• 5√3+4√3-(2×15)√3
• 5√3+4√3-30√3
• 9√3-30√3 = -21√3

Hence, the simplification of √75+ √48 -2√675 is -21√3.
