$(sqrt3)/(2sqrt3-sqrt5)$

First, we find the factors of $sqrt12$ and simplify it further.

$sqrt12$ = $sqrt(4 xx 3$ = $sqrt4xxsqrt3$ = $2xxsqrt3$

$(sqrt3)/(sqrt12 - sqrt5)$ ----->we know that $sqrt12$ is $2xxsqrt3$ and substitute that for $sqrt12$ as shown below:

$(sqrt3)/(2xxsqrt3 -sqrt5)$ = $(sqrt3)/(2sqrt3-sqrt5)$
