Because no one should have to say, "I was never any good at math."
√ 7 is an irrational number essentially since it cannot be expressed as a fraction. Therefore, if you have 5 of those (by multiplying by 5), the number is still irrational. So, 5√7 is an irrational number.
Fun fact: irrational literally means no ratio, and that's what a fraction is.

Darn, I thought they were called irrational because they behaved unreasonably! ;-)01/12/22
