| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{60}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ 3 \sqrt{3} } \cdot \sqrt{60} = 18 \sqrt{5} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{60} } \cdot \sqrt{60} = 60 $$ |
| ③ | Divide numerator and denominator by $ \color{blue}{ 6 } $. |
