a) \(\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}\)
= \(\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}+\sqrt{4}+\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}\)
= \(\dfrac{\left(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}\right)+\sqrt{2}\left(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}\right)}{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}\)
= \(\dfrac{\left(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}\right)\left(1+\sqrt{2}\right)}{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{4}}\)
= \(1+\sqrt{2}\)
b) \(\left(4+\sqrt{15}\right)\left(\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{6}\right)\sqrt{4-\sqrt{15}}\)
= \(\dfrac{8+2\sqrt{5}}{2}.\left(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\right).\sqrt{2}.\sqrt{4-\sqrt{15}}\)
=\(\dfrac{\left(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}\right)^2}{2}\left(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\right)\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\right)^2}\)
= \(\dfrac{\left(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}\right)^2}{2}.\left(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\right)^2\)
= \(\dfrac{\left(5-3\right)^2}{2}=2\)
