| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{80}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{28} } \cdot \sqrt{80} = 8 \sqrt{35} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{80} } \cdot \sqrt{80} = 80 $$ |
| ③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 8. |
