Question 801726: Please help me rationalize the denominator...
3(sqrt(2))/2(sqrt(3))-5(sqrt(2))
Thank you for your time...

Answer by KMST(5328)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!


NOTES:
can be typed as
3sqrt(2) / ( 2sqrt(3) - 5sqrt(2) )
for the understanding of people and this website.
People may even understand you if you "abbreviate" it as
3sqrt2 / ( 2sqrt3 - 5sqrt2 ),
but you still need the entire denominator wrapped in brackets.

Calculators and computers will require asterisks for the usually omitted multiplication signs, so you would have to enter
3*sqrt(2) / ( 2*sqrt(3) - 5*sqrt(2) )

If there are plus and minus signs in your numerator and/or denominator, you need to wrap it/them in brackets, because
3(sqrt(2))/2(sqrt(3))-5(sqrt(2)) =
If you ask a calculator for
0.735-0.002/0.728-0.003 = (rounded)
most calculators will give you exactly what you ask for.
They will not understand that you mean
(0.735-0.002)/(0.728-0.003) =
