| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{5} + 6} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \left( 3 \sqrt{5} + 6\right) = \color{blue}{2} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5}+\color{blue}{2} \cdot6 = \\ = 6 \sqrt{5} + 12 $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 3 \sqrt{5}-6\right) } \cdot \left( 3 \sqrt{5} + 6\right) = \color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5}+\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot6\color{blue}{-6} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5}\color{blue}{-6} \cdot6 = \\ = 45 + 18 \sqrt{5}- 18 \sqrt{5}-36 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
