Question 3 of 5
Adding & Subtracting Radicals

To add or subtract radicals, the degree and radicand must be the same. For example, \(2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{3} = 5\sqrt{3}\) but \(2\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{3}\) cannot be added because they have different radicands.

What is \( 5 \)\( \sqrt{125} \) - \( 3 \)\( \sqrt{5} \)

15\( \sqrt{125} \)
2\( \sqrt{125} \)
2\( \sqrt{625} \)
22\( \sqrt{5} \)
