Prove that following is Irrational
ANSWER
Let the number be Rational.
Then It can be written as p/q , where p and q are rational.
Now, if p is rational then 5p is also rational similarly 2q ia rational and a rational number by a rational number is also rational.
Hence, RHS is rational but LHS is irrational because root 3 is irrational.
So it contradicts our assumtion the given number is irrational.
