1. Problem Description

The problem requires us to simplify the expression 12108+48\sqrt{12} - \sqrt{108} + \sqrt{48}.

2. Solution Steps

First, we simplify each radical term:
12=43=43=23\sqrt{12} = \sqrt{4 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{4} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 2\sqrt{3}
108=363=363=63\sqrt{108} = \sqrt{36 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{36} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 6\sqrt{3}
48=163=163=43\sqrt{48} = \sqrt{16 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{16} \cdot \sqrt{3} = 4\sqrt{3}
Now, substitute the simplified radicals back into the expression:
2363+432\sqrt{3} - 6\sqrt{3} + 4\sqrt{3}
Combine the terms:
(26+4)3=(66)3=03=0(2 - 6 + 4)\sqrt{3} = (6 - 6)\sqrt{3} = 0\sqrt{3} = 0

3. Final Answer
