| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{2}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( \sqrt{50}-14\right) } \cdot \sqrt{2} = \color{blue}{ \sqrt{50}} \cdot \sqrt{2}\color{blue}{-14} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \\ = 10- 14 \sqrt{2} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{2} } \cdot \sqrt{2} = 2 $$ |
| ③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 2. |
| ④ | Remove 1 from denominator. |
