| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{20}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 32 \sqrt{4} } \cdot \sqrt{20} = 128 \sqrt{5} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ 8 \sqrt{20} } \cdot \sqrt{20} = 160 $$ |
| ③ | Divide numerator and denominator by $ \color{blue}{ 32 } $. |
