Addition and
Subtraction of
Radical Expressions
In Adding and subtracting radical
expressions, only similar radicals
can be combined, that is the
algebraic sum of two or more
similar radicals can be expressed as
a single radical.
SIMILAR RADICALS
are radicals with the same index and the
same radicand.

DISSIMILAR
areRADICALS
radicals with different index and having
the same radicand or with the same index
and having a different radicand.
Adding and Subtracting
Similar Radicals
- In adding similar radicals, we
only add or subtract the coefficients
then affix the common radical.
What is coefficient?
-coefficient is the number
placed directly in front of the
radical sign.
5 √7
3
Let’s try to add and subtract similar radicals .
