Question

How do you add `3sqrt2 + 5sqrt2`?

Answer 1

`3sqrt(2) + 5sqrt(2) = 8sqrt(2)`

Try viewing `sqrt(2)` as apples

So that equation would mean add 3 apples to 5 apples

And this should be intuitive to you that the result is 8 apples

And since apples is represented by `sqrt(2)`

The answer is `8sqrt(2)`
