| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{6} + 3} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 3 + \sqrt{6}\right) } \cdot \left( \sqrt{6} + 3\right) = \color{blue}{3} \cdot \sqrt{6}+\color{blue}{3} \cdot3+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{6}} \cdot \sqrt{6}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{6}} \cdot3 = \\ = 3 \sqrt{6} + 9 + 6 + 3 \sqrt{6} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( \sqrt{6}-3\right) } \cdot \left( \sqrt{6} + 3\right) = \color{blue}{ \sqrt{6}} \cdot \sqrt{6}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{6}} \cdot3\color{blue}{-3} \cdot \sqrt{6}\color{blue}{-3} \cdot3 = \\ = 6 + 3 \sqrt{6}- 3 \sqrt{6}-9 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
| ④ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 3. |
| ⑤ | Place a negative sign in front of a fraction. |
| ⑥ | Remove the parenthesis by changing the sign of each term within them. |
