5
3√5=a/b
√5=a/3b{since a and b r integers
√5=a/3b is rational}
therefore√5 is rational
but we have proved above that √5 is irrational
so,our assumption is wrong
3√5is irrational

hey!


here is answer

to prove

3 \sqrt{5} is \: irrational


let \:  3\sqrt{5}  \: be \: a \: rational \: no

then

3 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a}{b}  \: where \: a \: and \: b \: are \: integer

and b≠0

3 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a}{b}

 \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{a}{3b}


here a/3b is rational number but
 \sqrt{5}
is irrational number.

hence the. contradiction we suppose is. wrong

hence \: 3 \sqrt{5} is \: irrational \: no


hope it helps

thanks
