① | Simplify numerator and denominator |
② | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 3- \sqrt{3}} $$. |
③ | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 4 \sqrt{3} } \cdot \left( 3- \sqrt{3}\right) = \color{blue}{ 4 \sqrt{3}} \cdot3+\color{blue}{ 4 \sqrt{3}} \cdot- \sqrt{3} = \\ = 12 \sqrt{3}-12 $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 3 + \sqrt{3}\right) } \cdot \left( 3- \sqrt{3}\right) = \color{blue}{3} \cdot3+\color{blue}{3} \cdot- \sqrt{3}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{3}} \cdot3+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{3}} \cdot- \sqrt{3} = \\ = 9- 3 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{3}-3 $$ |
