Answer:
let 2-3√5 be a rational no. in its simplest form p/q
now,a/q
2-3√5=p/q
-3√5=p/q-2
√5=p-2q/3q
here, the fraction is in the rational form but it's sum is √5, which is an irrational number. this proves our supposition wrong. so, 2-3√5 is an irrational number.
here is your answer and hope it helps :)
