4sqrt(3) -3sqrt(2)

Explanation:

To simplify, you would combine like terms (same variable or exponent), and in this case, the like terms both have sqrt(2).

So simplify sqrt(2) -4sqrt(2) to -3sqrt(2) (since there is an invisible 1 in front of the sqrt(2).

4sqrt(3) + sqrt(2) - 4sqrt(2)
4sqrt(3) -3 sqrt(2)
