| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 2 \sqrt{2} + 3 \sqrt{3}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 5 } \cdot \left( 2 \sqrt{2} + 3 \sqrt{3}\right) = \color{blue}{5} \cdot 2 \sqrt{2}+\color{blue}{5} \cdot 3 \sqrt{3} = \\ = 10 \sqrt{2} + 15 \sqrt{3} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 2 \sqrt{2}- 3 \sqrt{3}\right) } \cdot \left( 2 \sqrt{2} + 3 \sqrt{3}\right) = \color{blue}{ 2 \sqrt{2}} \cdot 2 \sqrt{2}+\color{blue}{ 2 \sqrt{2}} \cdot 3 \sqrt{3}\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{3}} \cdot 2 \sqrt{2}\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{3}} \cdot 3 \sqrt{3} = \\ = 8 + 6 \sqrt{6}- 6 \sqrt{6}-27 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
| ④ | Place a negative sign in front of a fraction. |
