Solution

41

\[\text{ The general term } T_{r + 1} \text{ in the given expansion is given by } \]

\[ ^{45}{}{C}_r ( 4^{1/5} )^{45 - r} ( 7^{1/10} )^r \]

\[\text{ For }  T_{r + 1}\text{  to be an integer, we must have }  \frac{r}{5} \text{ and } \frac{r}{10}\text { as integers i . e } . 0 \leq r \leq 45\]

\[ \therefore r = 0, 10, 20, 30 \text{  and }  40\]

\[\text{ Hence, there are 5 rational and 41, i . e . , 46 - 5, irrational terms } .\]
