Explanation:
let's assume that cube root 5 is a rational number.
so we can say that a/b is some integer of cube root 5.
therefore
√5 = a/b
cubing both sides
we will get 5 x √5 = a^3/b^3
so
√5 = a^3/b^3 x 5
we can say that a^3/b^3 x 5 is rational. so cube root 5 is also rational. it contradicts that our assumption is wrong. therefore cube root 5 is irrational.
