Let us assume

5 \sqrt{3 } \:  \:  \: is \: not \: a \: irrational \: no.

.: It is a rational no.

.:

5 \sqrt{3} \:  =  \frac{p}{q}

 \sqrt{3}  =  \frac{p}{5q}

Therefore from above it is proved that under root 3 is rational no.

But it contradicts the fact that

Under root 3 is irrational no.

.: the assumption was incorrect and 5 root 3 is an irrational no.
