| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 5- 3 \sqrt{2}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 5- 3 \sqrt{2}\right) } \cdot \left( 5- 3 \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{5} \cdot5+\color{blue}{5} \cdot- 3 \sqrt{2}\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{2}} \cdot5\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{2}} \cdot- 3 \sqrt{2} = \\ = 25- 15 \sqrt{2}- 15 \sqrt{2} + 18 $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 5 + 3 \sqrt{2}\right) } \cdot \left( 5- 3 \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{5} \cdot5+\color{blue}{5} \cdot- 3 \sqrt{2}+\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{2}} \cdot5+\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{2}} \cdot- 3 \sqrt{2} = \\ = 25- 15 \sqrt{2} + 15 \sqrt{2}-18 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
