1. **Problem statement:** We have triangle ABC with sides |AB| = 5, |AC| = 3, and angles |\angle ABC| = W, |\angle ACB| = 2W, where $0^\circ < W < 45^\circ$. We want to find $\cos W$ in the form $\frac{p}{q}$ with $p,q \in \mathbb{N}$. We will use the result from part (b)(i) and the Sine Rule.
2. **Recall the Sine Rule:** For any triangle,
$$\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C}$$
where $a,b,c$ are sides opposite angles $A,B,C$ respectively.
3. **Label sides and angles:**
- Side opposite $W$ (angle at B) is $AC = 3$.
- Side opposite $2W$ (angle at C) is $AB = 5$.
- Side opposite $\angle A$ is $BC$ (unknown).
4. **Apply the Sine Rule to sides AB and AC:**
$$\frac{5}{\sin 2W} = \frac{3}{\sin W}$$
5. **Rearrange to express $\sin 2W$ in terms of $\sin W$:**
$$5 \sin W = 3 \sin 2W$$
6. **Use the double-angle identity for sine:**
$$\sin 2W = 2 \sin W \cos W$$
7. **Substitute into the equation:**
$$5 \sin W = 3 \times 2 \sin W \cos W = 6 \sin W \cos W$$
8. **Divide both sides by $\sin W$ (nonzero since $0^\circ < W < 45^\circ$):**
$$\cancel{\sin W} \times 5 = 6 \cancel{\sin W} \cos W \implies 5 = 6 \cos W$$
9. **Solve for $\cos W$:**
$$\cos W = \frac{5}{6}$$
10. **Conclusion:** The value of $\cos W$ in the form $\frac{p}{q}$ with $p,q \in \mathbb{N}$ is
$$\boxed{\frac{5}{6}}$$
This uses the Sine Rule and the double-angle identity, along with the given side lengths and angles.
