① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{5}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 5 \sqrt{7} } \cdot \sqrt{5} = 5 \sqrt{35} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 7 \sqrt{5} } \cdot \sqrt{5} = 35 $$ |
③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 5. |
