How do you find the quotient of (\sqrt{3}-i) -: (2- 2\sqrt{3}i)(3i)÷(223i)?

(sqrt{3}-i) divide (2-i2sqrt{3})(3i)÷(2i23)

by rewriting in fraction form,

={sqrt{3}-i}/{2-2sqrt{3}i}=3i223i

by factoring 22 out of the denominator,

={sqrt{3}-i}/{2(1-sqrt{3}i)}=3i2(13i)

by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by (1+sqrt{3}i)(1+3i),

={sqrt{3}+3i-i+sqrt{3}}/{2[1-(sqrt{3}i)^2]}=3+3ii+32[1(3i)2]

by simplifying a bit further,

={2(sqrt{3}+i)}/{2(1+3)}=2(3+i)2(1+3)

by cancelling out 22,

={sqrt{3}+i}/4=3+i4


I hope that this was helpful.
