studiot Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 What happens if you bring the square roots to the top of each fraction? Do you know how to do this?

studiot Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 So were you able to complete the question? Since the OP has left the scene without further answer and for the benefit of others who might be interested. [math]\frac{1}{{\sqrt 3 + \sqrt 2 }} = \frac{1}{{\sqrt 3 + \sqrt 2 }}*\frac{{\sqrt 3 - \sqrt 2 }}{{\sqrt 3 - \sqrt 2 }}[/math]
imatfaal Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 What happens if you bring the square roots to the top of each fraction? Do you know how to do this? Took me a while to figure out what you meant - I multiplied top and bottom by the conjugate of the bottom; and then a flurry of cancelling occurred!
