Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both denominator & numerator by the conjugate of the denominator.

Conjugate of the denominator  1 + √3 is 1 - √3

\frac{6}{1+\sqrt{3}}=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{1^{2}-(\sqrt{3})^{2}}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{1-3}\\\\=\frac{6(1-\sqrt{3})}{-2}\\\\=(-3)(1-\sqrt{3})\\\\=-3+3\sqrt{3}

Which of these expressions are equivalent to p/3?
aleksandrvk [35]
<h3>Answer: Choice B.  1/3p</h3>

This is assuming that p is not in the denominator. To make it more clear that p is not in the denominator, I recommend you write (1/3)p.

Taking 1/3 of a number is the same as dividing by 3.

Example:

27/3 = 9

27*(1/3) = 9
