Sol:
√3 = 1.732......

√5 = 2.236.....

The numbers which can be expressed in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0 are called rational numbers. A terminating decimal and a non-terminating non-repeating decimal can be represented as a rational number.

Therefore, a rational number between √3 and √5 is 2.

Answer 2

3^(1/2)=1.732.....
5^(1/2)=2.236.....
Rational number between them=2

Irrational number between them=2.123456789101112.............
