Example Question #42 : Adding And Subtracting Radicals
To add or subtract radicals, they must be the same root and have the same number under the radical before combining them. Look for perfect squares that divide into the number under the radicals because those can be simplified.
Take the square roots of each of the perfect squares in these radicals and bring it out of the radical. It will multiply to any coefficient in front of that radical
Example Question #4081 : Algebra Ii
To add or subtract radicals, they must be the same root and have the same number under the radical before combining them. Look for perfect squares that divide into the number under the radicals because those can be simplified.
Take the square roots of each of the perfect squares in these radicals and bring it out of the radical. It will multiply to any coefficient in front of that radical
