Does an irrational number $C$ exist such that $C \cdot \sqrt 2 \in \Bbb{Q}$, where $\sqrt2 \not\mid C$?
I just thought of this, I'm trying to find answers that aren't of the form $C=a\sqrt2, a\in\Bbb{Q}$.

If $C\cdot\sqrt 2\in\mathbb Q$, then $C\cdot\sqrt 2=q$ for some $q\in\mathbb Q$, hence $C=\frac q{\sqrt 2}=\frac q2\cdot\sqrt 2$.
