Irrational number then no integral power of it can be an integer, as in lowest terms there must be a prime in the denominator that does not divide into the numerator whatever power each is raised to. Therefore, if an integer is not an exact "k" power of another integer, then that first integer's "k" root is irrational. Perhaps the numbers most easy to prove irrational are certain logarithms. Here is a proof by contradiction that log 3 is irrational. Notice that log 3 ≈ 1.58 > 0. Assume log 3 is rational. For some positive integers "m" and "n", we have
