Adding and Subtracting (Values Only) (Level 2)

This topic focuses on practicing the addition and subtraction of radical expressions. Students are required to simplify expressions before performing the arithmetic operations. The problems all involve different numbers under the radical, challenging students to manipulate and combine these expressions correctly. The topic, designed as "Radicals - Adding and Subtracting (Values Only)" at level 2, provides a foundational understanding of handling radicals in mathematical expressions. There are multiple-choice answers for each problem, which help sharpen the students' skills in identifying correct simplification and calculation methods for radicals.
