Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]a) \: 7 \sqrt{3} - 2 \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{3} - 3 \sqrt{3} [/tex]
[Taking sq.root 3 common]
[tex] = (7 - 2 + 1 - 3) \sqrt{3} [/tex]
[tex] = (8 - 5) \sqrt{3} [/tex]
[tex] = 3 \sqrt{3} (ans)[/tex]
[tex]b) \: 5 \sqrt{7} + 4 \sqrt{7} - 8 \sqrt{7} [/tex]
[Taking sq.root 7 common]
[tex] = (5 + 4 - 8) \sqrt{7} [/tex]
[tex] = (9 - 8)\sqrt{7} [/tex]
[tex] = 1 \sqrt{7} [/tex]
[tex] = \sqrt{7} (ans)[/tex]
