$4sqrt(3) -3sqrt(2)$

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 $sqrt(2)$ .

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