To do this, we need rationalize the denominator. This means get rid of the radical:
Multiply top and bottom by sqrt(5)
2sqrt(5)/sqrt(5) * sqrt(5)
sqrt(5) * sqrt(5) = sqrt(25) so we have:
2sqrt(5)/sqrt(25)
sqrt(25) = 5, so we have:
2sqrt(5)/5
Multiply top and bottom by sqrt(5)
2sqrt(5)/sqrt(5) * sqrt(5)
sqrt(5) * sqrt(5) = sqrt(25) so we have:
2sqrt(5)/sqrt(25)
sqrt(25) = 5, so we have:
2sqrt(5)/5
