To prove:

5 \sqrt{2} \:  is \: a \: rational

SolutioN:

Then,

5 \sqrt{2}  =  \frac{a}{ b} (where \: a \: and \: b \: are \: co - prime \: and \: b ╪\: 0

 \sqrt{2}  = \frac{a}{5b}

 \frac{a}{5b}  \: is \:  a \: rational

But we know √2 is irrational

this contradiction arise due to our wrong supposition that 5√2 is a rational .

Hence,

5√2 is irrational !!!

Hence, done :)
