OA D



√(2√63+ 2/(8+3√7)) = √(2√63+ 2/(8+√63))= √(126+16√63+ 2)/(8+√63)) = √16((8+√63)/ (8+√63)) =√16 =4

1/(a+b) + c = (ab+ac+1)/(a+b)

so,

(2√63+ 2/(8+√63))= (2√63*8 + 2√63* √63 + 2) /(8+√63) = (16√63 + 2*63 + 2)/(8+√63) = (128+16√63)/(8+√63)

sqrt(2*sqrt63 + 2/(8+3*sqrt(3))
=> sqrt(2*sqrt63 + (2*(8 - 3*sqrt(3))/1 (multiply/divide by 8 - 3*sqrt(3) )
=> sqrt(2*sqrt63 + 16 - 2*sqrt63) = sqrt(16) = 4
530->480->580
when posting a question don't post OA(even masked) before some discussion.

*corrected the numbers, Bhumika thanks for pointing numbers were wrong but solution stays

square_root[2*square_root(63) + 16 - 2*square_root(63) ]
will give me square_root(16) because other two terms are of opposite sign and of equal value so both cancel out
