① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{6}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{15} } \cdot \sqrt{6} = 3 \sqrt{10} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{6} } \cdot \sqrt{6} = 6 $$ |
③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 3. |
