Answer:

 \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

 \frac{3 + \sqrt{2}}{4\sqrt{2}}

 \frac{3 + \sqrt{2}}{4\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{4 \sqrt{2}}{4 \sqrt{2}}

 \frac{12 \times 2}{16 \times 2}

 \frac{12 \times \cancel{2}}{16 \times \cancel{2}}

 \frac{12}{16}

 \frac{\cancel{12}}{\cancel{16}}

 \frac{6}{8}

 \frac{\cancel{6}}{\cancel{8}}

 \frac{3}{4}

Explaination of answer:

  • Here, we've to rationalise the denomination. We can't write the root  \sqrt{2} in the denominator. So, we'll rationalise it.

  • (Or) in simple words, we'll write in the form of  \frac{p}{q} where, p and q both are integers and q ≠ 0.

  • As we know that,  \sqrt{2} is not a integer, it is a irrational number as it's decimal expansion is non - terminating and non - recurring (non - repeating).

  • As we can see in the in step - 2 we've multiplied the denominator in the numerator as well as denominator, as we are equalising the denominator.

  • So that, the root and root will be get cancelled and we'll get a rationalised value.

  • And thus, we're abled to rationalise the denominator.
