    Rewriting the given expression by rationalizing the denominator we proceed as follows:

    [√3-√6]/[√3+√6]

    to rationalize the denominator we multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate. Thus we shall have:

    [√3-√6]/[√3+√6]*[√3-√6]/[√3-√6]

    ={√3 (√3-√6) - √6 (√3-√6) }/{√3 (√3+√6) - √6 (√3+√6) }

    =[3-√3√6-√3√6+6]/[3+√3√6-√3√6-6]

    simplifying the above we obtain:

    [3-2√18+6]/[3-6]

    =[3+6-6√2] / (-3)

    =[9-6√2] / (-3)

    =2√2-3

    Answer: 2√2-3
