① | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{24} } \cdot \sqrt{48} = 24 \sqrt{2} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{48} } \cdot \sqrt{48} = 48 $$ |
② | Divide both numerator and denominator by 24. |
③ | $$ \color{blue}{ 2 } \cdot \sqrt{2} = 2 \sqrt{2} $$$$ \color{blue}{ 1 } \cdot 2 = 2 $$ |
④ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 2. |
