Answer:

√27 is rational

Step-by-step explanation:

Let √27 be rational

∴√27=\frac{a}{b} where a and b are co-primes

(√27)²=(\frac{a}{b}

27=\frac{a^{2}}{b^{2}}

27b²=a²

∴a² is a factor of 27

∴a is a factor of 27

Let a=27c for some integer c

∴ 27b²=(27c)²

∴b²=27c²

∴b² is a factor of 27

∴b is a factor of 27

This is a contradiction because we had assumed that a and b are co-prime.

∴√27 is irrational
