The answer is

.
Before we rationalize the denominator, we must simplify the numerator and denominator. We evaluate the square root on the top, and combine like terms on the bottom:

To rationalize the denominator, we multiply by the conjugate. The conjugate is found by making the imaginary term of the complex number, the i part, the opposite sign. The conjugate of -2-i is -2+i:
Answer:
-21 over 24 should be equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Equivalent fractions are simple. To find an equivalent fraction simply multiply the denominator AND the numerator by any natural number other than 1 (a natural number is any number greater than zero, numbers that ARE zero or less AREN'T natural numbers i.e. 0, -1, -2, -3, you get the point)
253 * 0.27= 68.31 (discounted price)
253-68.31 OR 253*0.73= 184.69 (sale price)
