(3sqrt5+2sqrt10)(4sqrt5-6sqrt10)=130sqrt2-60

Explanation:

(3sqrt5+2sqrt10)(4sqrt5-6sqrt10)

= 3sqrt5(4sqrt5+6sqrt10)+2sqrt10(4sqrt5-6sqrt10)

= 12sqrt25+18sqrt50+8sqrt50-12sqrt100

= 12sqrt(5xx5)+18sqrt(2xx5xx5)+8sqrt(2xx5xx5)-12sqrt(10xx10)

= 12xx5+18xx5xxsqrt2+8xx5xxsqrt2-12xx10

= 60+90xxsqrt2+40sqrt2-120

= 130sqrt2-60
