1. Problem Description

Simplify the expression 75192\sqrt{75} - \sqrt{192}.

2. Solution Steps

We simplify each term separately.
75=253=253=53\sqrt{75} = \sqrt{25 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{25} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 5\sqrt{3}
192=643=643=83\sqrt{192} = \sqrt{64 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{64} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 8\sqrt{3}
Then, we substitute the simplified terms back into the expression:
75192=5383=(58)3=33\sqrt{75} - \sqrt{192} = 5\sqrt{3} - 8\sqrt{3} = (5-8)\sqrt{3} = -3\sqrt{3}

3. Final Answer

33-3\sqrt{3}
