They probably want you to get rid of "i" in the denominator
Multiply by the conjugate of (5+i) which is (5-i) over itself, (same as mult by 1)
*
:
Multiply the numerators and FOIL the denominators. Remember i^2 = -1
= = = = +
:
Note that we can reduce both fractions, they both are multiples of 13
+ = is the form they want probably
