| ① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ \sqrt{28}} $$. |
| ② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{7} } \cdot \sqrt{28} = 14 $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \sqrt{28} } \cdot \sqrt{28} = 28 $$ |
| ③ | Divide both the top and bottom numbers by $ \color{orangered}{ 14 } $. |
