① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{2}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 9 } \cdot \left( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{9} \cdot \sqrt{11}+\color{blue}{9} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \\ = 9 \sqrt{11} + 9 \sqrt{2} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( \sqrt{11}- \sqrt{2}\right) } \cdot \left( \sqrt{11} + \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{ \sqrt{11}} \cdot \sqrt{11}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{11}} \cdot \sqrt{2}\color{blue}{- \sqrt{2}} \cdot \sqrt{11}\color{blue}{- \sqrt{2}} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \\ = 11 + \sqrt{22}- \sqrt{22}-2 $$ |
③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
④ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 9. |
⑤ | Remove 1 from denominator. |
