| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{3}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 1- 2 \sqrt{2}\right) } \cdot \sqrt{3} = \color{blue}{1} \cdot \sqrt{3}\color{blue}{- 2 \sqrt{2}} \cdot \sqrt{3} = \\ = \sqrt{3}- 2 \sqrt{6} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 4 \sqrt{3} } \cdot \sqrt{3} = 12 $$ |
