Answer:
Let us assume that 7√5 is a rational number
Hence, 7√5 can be written in the form of a/b where a, b are co-prime and b not equal to 0.
7√5 = a/b
√5 = a/7b
here √5 is irrational and a/7b is a rational number.
Rational number ≠ Irrational number
It is a contradiction to our assumption 7√5 is a rational number.
Therefore, 7√5 is an irrational number.
Hence, proved.
