| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 7 + 3 \sqrt{5}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 7 + 3 \sqrt{5}\right) } \cdot \left( 7 + 3 \sqrt{5}\right) = \color{blue}{7} \cdot7+\color{blue}{7} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5}+\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot7+\color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5} = \\ = 49 + 21 \sqrt{5} + 21 \sqrt{5} + 45 $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 7- 3 \sqrt{5}\right) } \cdot \left( 7 + 3 \sqrt{5}\right) = \color{blue}{7} \cdot7+\color{blue}{7} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5}\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot7\color{blue}{- 3 \sqrt{5}} \cdot 3 \sqrt{5} = \\ = 49 + 21 \sqrt{5}- 21 \sqrt{5}-45 $$ |
| ③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
| ④ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 2. |
