Pull out common factors.
sqrt%2827%29=sqrt%283%2A9%29=3%2Asqrt%283%29
sqrt%2875%29=sqrt%283%2A25%29=5%2Asqrt%283%29
sqrt%2812%29=sqrt%283%2A4%29=2%2Asqrt%283%29

+sqrt%2827%29%2Bsqrt%2875%29-sqrt%2812%29+=3%2Asqrt%283%29%2B5%2Asqrt%283%29-2%2Asqrt%283%29
+sqrt%2827%29%2Bsqrt%2875%29-sqrt%2812%29+=6%2Asqrt%283%29
