Which numbers are irrational numbers?

Irrational numbers are a subset of real numbers that are not rational numbers, rational numbers comprises integers and non-integers. In this case, square roots are one of the most known cases of irrational numbers.   Now we proceed to check if each choice represents indeed an irrational number by algebraic handling:

Case A

√4 + √16 = 2 + 4 = 6

Case B

√5 + √36 = √5 + 6

Case C

√9 + √24 = 3 + √(6 × 4) = 3 + 2√6

Case D

2√4 = 2 × 2 = 4

Case E

√49 × √81 = 7 × 9 = 63

Case F

3√12 = 3√(3 × 4) = 6√3

The numbers √5 + √36, √9 + √24 and 3√12 are irrational numbers. (Correct choices: B, C, F)
