Expert Solution

Step 1

Rationalizing is the process of multiplying a surd with another similar surd, to result in a rational number. The surd that is used to multiply is called the rationalizing factor. When we rationalize the denominator in a fraction, then we are eliminating any radical expressions such as square roots and cube roots from the denominator.

In this question, we are rationalizing the denominator using conjugate as the rationalizing factor.
