| ① | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{5} } \cdot \sqrt{3} = \sqrt{15} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{3} } \cdot \sqrt{3} = 3 $$ |
| ② | $$ \color{blue}{ 3 } \cdot \sqrt{15} = 3 \sqrt{15} $$$$ \color{blue}{ 1 } \cdot 3 = 3 $$ |
| ③ | Divide both numerator and denominator by 3. |
