Answer:

Let us assume to the contrary that 3√7 is a rational number

Then , 3√7 = a÷b where a and b are coprime integers and b not equal to 0

√7 = a÷3b

Therefore , we get a÷3b as rational

So √7 is also rational.

But this contradicts the fact that √7 is irrational

This contradiction has arisen because of our incorrect assumption that 3√7 is rational.

So we conclude that 3√7 is irrational.
