You can put this solution on YOUR website! Btw, these do not involve complex numbers so I have changed the subject. However, some of these techniques can be used to simplify complex number expressions.
Multiply both sides by the conjugate of the denominator, i.e. to produce
A consequence of the difference of two squares theorem, this ensures the denominator will be an integer.
