Question 732689: When simplifying radicals like this one: 3sqrt%283%29+%2F+%28-2%29+%2B+sqrt%286%29
****The sqrt+%286%29 is supposed to be next to the (-2)****
Do you multiply both top and bottom by -2-sqrt%286%29?
And how do you multiply 3sqrt%283%29 with (-2-sqrt(6)}}}
I can get the bottom half just fine, the top is just throwing me off a bit.
