I'd say A. Can't the 2's cancel out leaving the sqrt 6?

try this if you've got a problem of this kind

(2*sqrt[4]+2)/2
is it 2?
or it is 3?

Since it is 3 and not 2, then your semplification is not correct. :good

Hi raz,
it is C for me as well! Sorry if my example wasn't clear...the point is: if you have sqrt[6], substitute it with a perfect square like 4, and change the answers thereof.
