Answer:

irrational number

Explanation:


2√(3) +3√(3)

Both terms have same square root (3)

So they are like terms. When we have like terms then we add the terms

We add both 2 and 3 . square root (3) remains the same


2√(3) +3√(3)


5√(3)

square root (3) is an irrational number

so the sum is also an irrational number
