=3 √6 - 3 √5
Explanation:
3 √5 + √6
We rationalise the denominator by multiplying the expression by the conjugate of the denominator. √5 - √6
3⋅ (√5 - √6) (√5 + √6) ⋅ (√5 - √6)
= 3⋅ (√5) + 3⋅ ( - √6) (√5 + √6) ⋅ (√5 - √6)
= 3 √5 - 3 √6 (√5 + √6) ⋅ (√5 - √6)
Applying identity
(a+b) (a-b) = a2 - b2 to the denominator.
= 3 √5 - 3 √6 (√5) 2 - (√6) 2
= 3 √5 - 3 √6 5-6
= 3 √5 - 3 √6 - 1
=-3 √5 + 3 √6
=3 √6 - 3 √ 5
