Answer:

the value of 3/√5 = 1.3416....

An irrational number is a number that can't be expressed as a fraction for any integers and these numbers have decimal expansions that neither terminate nor become periodic.

So it is a irrational number.

Hence Proved.

Hey!!! Here is your answer......

Lets assume 35 is a rational number.

35 = a/b (where b0)

3= a/b -5

Squaring on both sides....

(3)²= [a/b-√5]

9 = /+5 -2(a/b) (5)

(since (a-b) ²= +b²-2ab)

Rearranging.....

2a/b 5 = /-4

2a/ b 5 = a²-4b²/

5 = a²-4b²/2ab

Here L. H. S = irrational number.

R. H. S = rational number.

An irrational number is not equal to rational number. Thus it contradicts the fact.

So, our assumption is wrong that 3√5 is a rational number.

:. 3√5 is an irrational number.

Hence proved..

Hope it helps....
