when there is no radical in the denominator
Rationalising the denominator.
It is called rationalisation [of the denominator].
It is called rationalising the denominator.
It isn't clear what, exactly, you want to achieve. To write a fraction in standard form, it is customary to leave no radical in the denominator; in this case, for example, if you have square root of 2 in the denominator, you would multiply top and bottom by square root of 2, precisely to get rid of the radical in the denominator.
To eliminate the radical in the denominator.

Rationalising the denominator.
It is called rationalisation [of the denominator].
It could be written as 28 divided by radical 3. However, you will normally be required to rationalise the denominator which brings you back to 28 radical 3 divided by 3.

"rationalizing" the denominator
It is called rationalising the denominator.

does it stay a fraction
No, you can also use conjugates with more than one radical term. For example, if the denominator is root(2) + root(3), you can use the conjugate root(2) - root(3) to rationalize the denominator.
