| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{2}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 20 } \cdot \sqrt{2} = 20 \sqrt{2} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 20 \sqrt{2} } \cdot \sqrt{2} = 40 $$ |
| ③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 20. |
