3(sqrt((5/(3x4))) + sqrt(21/5) - 1/3 x sqrt (2 x 2 x 15)=
(3sqrt(5/3))/2 + sqrt(21/5) -1/3 x 2 x sqrt (15)=
3/2(sqrt(5/3)) + sqrt (21/5) -2/3 x sqrt (15)

is the first term...
3â(5/12) or (3â5)/12
is that last term...
– (1/3) â60 ... as in -â60/3
or - 1/(3â60)
it makes a difference on the final answer which these two are.
assuming for the easiest:
(3â5)/12 +(â21)/5 –(â60)/3
common factor for the denominators (12, 5, and 3) is 60
putting this into a common form:
5(3â5)/60 +12(â21)/60 –20(â60)/60
simplifies down to:
[5(3â5) +12(â21) –20(â60)] / 60
[ 15â5 +12â(3.7) –20â(2.2.5)] / 60
[ 15â5 +12â(3.7) –40â(5)] / 60
[ 15â5 –40â(5) +12â(3.7)] / 60
[ -25â(5) +12â(3.7)] / 60
ANS: (12â21 -25â5) / 60 ... this could be re-written as (â21)/5 - (5â5)/12
