| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{6}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 1 } \cdot \left( \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{6}\right) = \color{blue}{1} \cdot \sqrt{7}+\color{blue}{1} \cdot \sqrt{6} = \\ = \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{6} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( \sqrt{7}- \sqrt{6}\right) } \cdot \left( \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{6}\right) = \color{blue}{ \sqrt{7}} \cdot \sqrt{7}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{7}} \cdot \sqrt{6}\color{blue}{- \sqrt{6}} \cdot \sqrt{7}\color{blue}{- \sqrt{6}} \cdot \sqrt{6} = \\ = 7 + \sqrt{42}- \sqrt{42}-6 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
| ④ | Remove 1 from denominator. |
