3 + 2 i 2 + 3 i + 1 + 5 i 1 2 i = ( 3 + 2 i ) ( 2 3 i ) ( 2 + 3 i ) ( 2 3 i ) + ( 1 + 5 i ) ( 1 + 2 i ) ( 1 2 i ) ( 1 + 2 i ) = 12 5 i 13 + 9 + 7 i 5 = 60 25 i 65 + 117 + 91 i 65 = 57 65 + 66 i 65 \begin{aligned} \frac {3+2i}{2+3i} + \frac {1+5i}{1-2i} & = \frac {(3+2i)(2-3i)}{(2+3i)(2-3i)} + \frac {(1+5i)(1+2i)}{(1-2i)(1+2i)} \\ & = \frac {12-5i}{13} + \frac {-9+7i}5 \\ & = \frac {60-25i}{65} + \frac {-117+91i}{65} \\ & = \boxed{\dfrac {-57}{65} + \dfrac {66i}{65}} \end{aligned}

Is it mandatory to rationalise the numerator and denominator?
