You have to rewrite the expression in lowest terms with the radical in the numerator. the first one is 6 over a line with a what looks like a division sign with a ten under it

rewrite the expression in lowest terms with the radical in the numerator. the first one is 6 over a line with a what looks like a division sign with a ten under it
------------
6/sqrt(10)
Multiply numerator and denominator by sqrt(10) to get:
8sqrt(10)/10
-------------
Reduce the fraction to get:
4sqrt(10)/5
--------------
Rewrite as follows:
(4/5)sqrt(10)
