3 / [ sqrt (7) - sqrt (2) ]          

 

Multiply top/bottom by the conjugate  of  [ sqrt (7) - sqrt (2) ] →  [ sqrt (7) + sqrt (2) ]

 

3  [ sqrt (7) + sqrt (2) ] / (  [ sqrt (7) - sqrt (2) ]  [ sqrt (7) + sqrt (2) ]   )   =

 

3  [ sqrt (7) + sqrt (2) ] / ( 7  -  2 )   =

 

3  [ sqrt (7) + sqrt (2) ]  / 5  =

 

(3/5)sqrt (7)   +  (3/5)sqrt (2)
