Lauren Richards commented on Rationalising the denominator - surds 8 years, 6 months ago
I have put all of the questions about rationalising the denominator together.
I didn't know how to enact your feedback for part e) in the previous question (which is now part b) in this question). It was "I got $\frac{\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{3}}$ which it expected me to write as $\frac{\sqrt{18}}{3}$. I'd write that as just $\sqrt{2}$. Can you set it up so there's only one way of writing it? Making sure the top and bottom of the original fraction are coprime might do it."

I have changed part b) of the original question and have made the rationalising the denominator sections of this original question into a different question purely on that.

For me, it only seems to work sometimes. I am still trying to figure it out.

This mainly looks good.
Try to avoid long runs of maths in-line with text - they're quite hard to read. Put long bits of maths in display mode, and don't be afraid to use lots of paragraph breaks.

Bradley Bush commented on Expansion of brackets 8 years, 6 months ago
Thank you for the feedback, I have now acted on the comments you gave by chaning all the questions into the mathematical expressions format, adjusting the variable sizes to make the mental maths easier and trying to make both the question statement and the advice more straight forward.
