Answer: C

Explanation:

You can solve this by first multiplying both sides of the fraction by the conjugate of the denominator.

In this case, the conjugate is (8 - 2i).

So:


(3-5i)/(8+2i) *(8-2i)/(8-2i)

Simplify:


(24-46i+10i^2)/(64 - 4i^2)

Simplify again, knowing that i^2 = -1


(14 -46i)/(68)

Then, divide both numbers in the numerator by 68 to get your answer.


(7)/(34) -(23i)/(34)
