Hi,

simplifying

2+%2Asqrt+%2896%29+%2B+sqrt%28+147%29+-+sqrt+%28300%29

2+%2Asqrt+%2896%29+%2B+sqrt%28+49%2A3%29+-+sqrt+%28100%2A3%29

2+%2Asqrt+%2816%2A6%29+%2B+7%2Asqrt%28+3%29+-+10%2Asqrt+%283%29 

combining the like terms 7%2Asqrt%28+3%29+-+10%2Asqrt+%283%29

4%2A2+%2Asqrt+%286%29+-+3%2Asqrt%28+3%29

%288%2Asqrt+%282%29+-+3%29sqrt%28+3%29
