Adding and Subtracting Complex Numbers
Posted by Professor Cram in Complex Numbers
Complex Numbers: An Introduction
A complex number can be expressed in the form:
- a + bi
where a and b are real numbers.
The number i is defined as the square root of -1. It is an imaginary number, since the square root of any negative number is not a real number.
Complex numbers are not algebraic expressions. They are numbers, containing a real part (a) and an imaginary part (bi).

I’ve been searching everywhere on the web for this question:
The combination of complex numbers and fractions can be expressed as either:
(a + bi)/(c + di)
or:
a/b + (c/d)i
The a, b, c, and d in the two examples are not related, they are different numbers. I prefer the latter, as the former usually simplifies to the latter. In the form of the latter, how would one express the numerator and denominator of the entire complex number? Is it the numerator/denominator of the length r in complex polar coordinates? Please respond, I would really appreciate it.

This was very helpful!!! Thanks so much!
hey can u solve the equation
and make me undrstand how u do it
