Let us assume that  2 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{5} is a rational numbers.

So,

They can be expressed in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q≠0.

Also,

Both p and q are co-primes.

Now,

2 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{p}{q} \\  \\  \\ {(2 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{5})}^{2} =  \frac{{p}^{2}}{{q}^{2}} \\  \\  \\12 + 45 + 12 \sqrt{15} = \frac{{p}^{2}}{{q}^{2}} \\  \\  \\ 12 \sqrt{15} = \frac{{p}^{2}}{{q}^{2}} - 57 \\  \\  \\  \sqrt{15} = \frac{{p}^{2} - 57 {q}^{2}}{12{q}^{2}}

We know that

 \sqrt{15} is \: an \: irrational \: number

But,

The RHS is a rational numbers as it is in the form of p/q and q≠0

Thus ,

It is a contradiction as both LHS and RHS can never be equal.

This has arose because we took

 2 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{5} as a rational number.

Thus,

 2 \sqrt{3} + 3 \sqrt{5} is an irrational number.

Hence, proved!
