3 - 3√7
Let us take on contrary that 3 root 7 is rational. then there exist two co prime numbers a and b such that
3root 7 = a/b
=> root 7 = a / 7b
now LHS is an irrational no. whereas RHs is rational
this contradiction has arised due to our wrong assumption in beginning
therefore 3 root 7 is an irrational number

that is actually the wrong method. initially I also thought to do it in the same way
