let suppose (√2)=(p/q) with p and q integrsn natural and Δ(p,q)=1 ⇒  2=(p^2 /q^2 ) ⇒p^2 =2q^2   ⇒2/p^2  ⇒2/p ⇒ ∃m ∈N /p=2m ⇒4m^2  =2q^2  ⇒q^2 =2m^2  ⇒  2/q^2  ⇒2/q  ⇒2∈D_p ∩D_q   but this is impossible because Δ(p,q)=1   finally  (√2) ∉Q .

$${let}\:{suppose}\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{{p}}{{q}}\:{with}\:{p}\:{and}\:{q}\:{integrsn}\:{natural}\:{and}\:\Delta\left({p},{q}\right)=\mathrm{1}\:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}=\frac{{p}^{\mathrm{2}} }{{q}^{\mathrm{2}} }\:\Rightarrow{p}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{2}{q}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}/{p}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}/{p}\:\Rightarrow\:\exists{m}\:\in{N}\:/{p}=\mathrm{2}{m}\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{4}{m}^{\mathrm{2}} \:=\mathrm{2}{q}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow{q}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{2}{m}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}/{q}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}/{q}\:\:\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}\in{D}_{{p}} \cap{D}_{{q}} \:\:{but}\:{this}\:{is}\:{impossible}\:{because}\:\Delta\left({p},{q}\right)=\mathrm{1}\: \\ $$$${finally}\:\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\:\notin{Q}\:. \\ $$
