① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{5}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 8 \sqrt{8} } \cdot \sqrt{5} = 16 \sqrt{10} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 8 \sqrt{5} } \cdot \sqrt{5} = 40 $$ |
③ | Divide numerator and denominator by $ \color{blue}{ 8 } $. |
