Step-by-step explanation:
5b² has one more prime factor than b², meaning it would have an odd number of prime factors. Every composite has a unique prime factorization and can't have both an even and odd number of prime factors. This contradiction forces the supposition wrong, so √5 cannot be rational. It is, therefore, irrational.
