Square root of 3 minus square root of 15 (√3-√15)

√3 - √15

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 3 and the square root of 15. Essentially, we will calculate √3 - √15.

First, we need to find the square root of each number individually. Then we will subtract one from the other. Below is the step-by-step calculation:

1. Calculate the square root of 3:
√3 ≈ 1.73205

2. Calculate the square root of 15:
√15 ≈ 3.87298

3. Subtract the square root of 15 from the square root of 3:
1.73205 - 3.87298 = -2.14093

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 15 from the square root of 3 is approximately -2.14093.

√3 - √15 ≈ -2.14093

To make things even more convenient, we have also expressed the result in its simplest radical form:

√3 - √15
