Our equation was
\n" ); document.write( "(i) $\"7%2F%28-3sqrt%282%29%2B1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "step 1 - find the conjugate as
\n" ); document.write( "-3sqrt(2) - 1 and then multiply by top and bottom to get
\n" ); document.write( "(ii) $\"7%2A%28-3sqrt%282%29-1%29\"$ / $\"%28-3sqrt%282%29+%2B+1%29%2A%28-3sqrt%282%29+-+1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "which is simplified to
\n" ); document.write( "(iii) $\"7%2A%28-3sqrt%282%29-1%29\"$ / $\"17\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
