(v) We know that rationalisation factor for\sqrt5+\sqrt3,\ \sqrt3+\sqrt2\ and\ \sqrt5+\sqrt2\ are\ \sqrt5-\sqrt3,\ \sqrt3-\sqrt2\ and\ \sqrt5-\sqrt2   respectively.

We will multiply numerator and denominator of the given expression\frac{2}{\sqrt5+\sqrt3},\ \frac{1}{\sqrt3+\sqrt2}\ and\ \frac{3}{\sqrt5+\sqrt2}\ by\ 2-\sqrt3,\ \sqrt5+\sqrt3\ and\ 2+\sqrt5   respectively, to get

\frac{2}{\sqrt5+\sqrt3}\times\frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt3}{\sqrt5-\sqrt3}+\frac{1}{\sqrt3+\sqrt2}\times\frac{\sqrt3-\sqrt2}{\sqrt3-\sqrt2}-\frac{3}{\sqrt5+\sqrt2}\times\frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt2}{\sqrt5-\sqrt2}=\frac{2\sqrt5-2\sqrt3}{5-3}+\frac{\sqrt3-\sqrt2}{3-2}-\frac{3\sqrt5-3\sqrt2}{5-2}\\ =\frac{2\sqrt5-2\sqrt3}{2}+\frac{\sqrt3+\sqrt2}{1}-\frac{3\sqrt5-3\sqrt2}{3}\\ =\sqrt5-\sqrt3+\sqrt3-\sqrt2-\sqrt5+\sqrt2\\ =0

Hence, the given expression is simplified to 0.
