① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{3}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 8 } \cdot \sqrt{3} = 8 \sqrt{3} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 8 \sqrt{3} } \cdot \sqrt{3} = 24 $$ |
③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 8. |
