Square root of 8 minus square root of 15 (√8-√15)

√8 - √15

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 8 and the square root of 15. Essentially, we will calculate √8 - √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 8:
√8 ≈ 2.82843

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

3. Subtract the square root of 15 from the square root of 8:
2.82843 - 3.87298 = -1.04455

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 15 from the square root of 8 is approximately -1.04455.

√8 - √15 ≈ -1.04455

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

2√2 - √15
