Consider the complex rational number shown below. This exercise will walk you through the steps of rationalizing this number. To start, enter a "crazy one" in the blank using conjugates.

`(2-4i)/(6+7i) * `  


Next, distribute the multiplication and combine like terms, but DO NOT simplify any of the `i^2` terms.

 


Next, replace all `i^2` terms with `-1`, and combine like terms. This is the rationalized complex number.

 


What are the real and imaginary parts of the rationalized number?

Real Part =  

Imaginary Part =
