solve %283%2B4i%29%2F%285-i%29
Multiply be the conjugate of the denominator over itself
%283%2B4i%29%2F%285-i%29*%285%2Bi%29%2F%285%2Bi%29 = %2815+%2B+3i+%2B+20i+%2B+4i%5E2%29%2F%2825+-+i%5E2%29 = %2815+%2B+23i+%2B++4%28-1%29%29%2F%2825+-+%28-1%29%29 = %2815+%2B+23i+-4%29%2F%2825+%2B+1%29 = %2811+%2B+23i%29%2F26
