Solution

z = `5/((1 - "i")(2 - "i")(3 - "i"))` 

= `5/((2 - "i" - 2"i" + "i"^2)(3 - "i"))`

= `5/((2 - 3"i" - 1)(3 - "i"))`    ...[∵ i2 = – 1]

= `5/((1 - 3"i")(3 - "i"))`

= `5/(3 - "i" - 9"i" + 3"i"^2`

= `5/(3 - 10"i" - 3)`

= `5/(-10"i")`

= `(5"i")/(-10"i"^2)`

= `(5"i")/10`

= `1/2"i"`, which is a purely imaginary number.
