Assume 2-3√5 be a rational no
therefore 2-3√5=a/b
hence √5=a-2b/3b
therefore a-2b/3b is a rational no
therefore √5 is a rational no
but we know that √5 is a irrational no
therefore our assumption was wrong that 2-3√5 is a rational no
therefore 2-3√5 is a irrational no

Answer:
-3√5 = - 2
√5 = 2 /3
we know that root 5 is irrational
and 2 / 3 is rational
so irrational not equal to rational
therefore the give number is irrational
