When you need to multiply and divide radical expressions, it’s important to follow the order of operations. You perform multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. Here’s how you can handle division of radical expressions:

Division of Radical Expressions:
To divide radical expressions, follow these steps:

1. Divide the Coefficients: Divide the coefficients (numbers outside the radical) of the two expressions you’re dividing.
2. Divide the Radicands: Divide the radicands (expressions under the radical sign) of the two expressions you’re dividing.
3. Combine and Simplify: Combine the result from step 1 with the result from step 2. If possible, simplify the resulting expression further by factoring out perfect squares from the radicand.
4. If the denominator has a radical then rationalize the denominator.

Remember to apply the order of operations correctly and simplify the expressions whenever possible.
