anonymous · Answer

Use a calculator ;-)

anonymous · Answer

well all you can do is rationalise the denominator - in this case in order to keep the same value you multiply top and bottom by sqrt5:

so   sqrt2 * sqrt5 / sqrt5 * sqrt 5
 =  sqrt10 / 5
i guess  it looks 'tidier' with a rational denominator
