    (1 + 8i) / 65.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    When we divide by a complex number we multiply top and bottom of the fraction by the conjugate; this creates a real denominator.

    So i / (8 + i) The conjugate of 8 + i is 8 - i, so we have:

    i (8 - i) / (8 + i) (8 - i)

    = (8i - i^2) / (64 - i^2) Now i^2 = - 1 so we have:

    (8i + 1) / (64 + 1)

    = (1 + 8i) / 65.

    (8i+1) / 65

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To divide the complex number i by 8+i, we will rationalise by multiplying the resulting complex number by the conjugate of its denominator. This can be expressed as;

    i/8+i

    = i/8+i * 8-i/8-i

    = i (8-i) / (8+i) (8-i)

    = 8i-i²/64-8i+8i-i²

    = 8i-i²/64-i²

    Since i² = - 1 in complex notation,

    The equation becomes;

    8i - (-1) / 64 - (-1)

    (8i+1) / 65
