Answer:
(2√(2)-1 )/(2)

Explanation:

1. multiply both the numerator and denominator by
2√(2)

2. distribute on the top to get
8√(2) - 4 (
√(2) *√(2) equals 2)

3. multiply the bottom to get 8

4. after getting
(8√(2)-4 )/(8), factor out a 4 from each term to get
(4(2√(2)-1))/(4(2))

5. the fours will cancel and the answer will be
(2√(2)-1 )/(2)
