Answer:

3.46227766; irrational

Explanation:

The sum of 3/10 and √10 can be written mathematically as:

3/10 + √10

Taking the LCM which is 10

3/10 + √10 = 0.3 + 3.16227766

= 3.46227766

Since we cannot express the resulting value as a ratio of two integers, therefore the value is classified as an irrational number.
