let \: ( \sqrt{7}  -  \sqrt{5} ) \: be \: a \: rational \: no. \\ so( \sqrt{7}  -  \sqrt{5} ) =  \frac{p}{q}  \\  {( \sqrt{7 }  -  \sqrt{5}) }^{2}  =   { (\frac{p}{q}) }^{2}  \\  { (\sqrt{7 } \: ) }^{2}  +  { (\sqrt{5} \:  )}^{2}  - 2 \sqrt{7} . \sqrt{5}  =  \frac{ {p}^{2} }{ {q}^{2} }  \\ 7 + 5 - 2  \sqrt{35}  =  \frac{ {p}^{2} }{ {q}^{2} }  \\ 12 -  \frac{ {p}^{2} }{ {q}^{2} }  = 2 \sqrt{35}  \\  \sqrt{35}  =  \frac{12 {q}^{2}  -  {p}^{2} }{2 {q}^{2} }

Now,

 \sqrt{35}  \: is\: a \: irrational \: no \\ but \:  \frac{12 {q}^{2}  -  {p}^{2} }{2 {q}^{2} }  \: is \: a \: rational \: no.

So,

 \sqrt{35} \:  not \:  =  \frac{12 {q}^{2} -  {p}^{2}  }{2 {q}^{2} }  \\ which \: contradicts \: our \: supposition \\t hat \:(  \sqrt{7}  -  \sqrt{5} ) \:is \: rational

hence \: it \: is \: irrational

Hence Proved
