Rationalizing Denominators

• For an expression containing a radical to be in
  simplest form, a fraction cannot appear in a
  radicand nor
• can a radical appear in the denominator of a
  fraction.
• The process of removing a radical from the
  denominator of a fraction is called rationalizing
  the denominator.
