① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{27}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{9} } \cdot \sqrt{27} = 9 \sqrt{3} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{27} } \cdot \sqrt{27} = 27 $$ |
③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 9. |
