best_answer

Given number is  \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{2}}

Now, on rationalisation, we will get 

\\= \frac{1}{\sqrt 5+\sqrt2} \\\\= \frac{1}{\sqrt 5+\sqrt 2}\times \frac{\sqrt 5-\sqrt 2 }{\sqrt 5-\sqrt 2 }\\\\ = \frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt 2}{(\sqrt5)^2-(\sqrt2)^2} \\\\= \frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt2}{5-2}
 = \frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt2}{3}

Therefore, the answer is  \frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt2}{3}
