Given function is
y=\sqrt {\frac{(x-1) ( x-2)}{(x-3 )(x-4 ) (x-5)}}
Take log on both the sides 
\log y=\frac{1}{2}\log\left ( \frac{(x-1) ( x-2)}{(x-3 )(x-4 ) (x-5)} \right )\\ \log y = \frac{1}{2} (\log(x-1)+\log(x-2)-\log(x-3)-\log(x-4)-\log(x-5))\\
Now, differentiation w.r.t. x is
\frac{d(\log y)}{dx} = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{d(\log(x-1))}{dx}+\frac{d(\log(x-2))}{dx}-\frac{d(\log(x-3))}{dx}-\frac{d(\log(x-4))}{dx}-\\\frac{d(\log(x-5))}{dx})
\frac{1}{y}\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{x-1}+\frac{1}{x-2}-\frac{1}{x-3}-\frac{1}{x-4}-\frac{1}{x-5})\\ \frac{dy}{dx}=y\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{x-1}+\frac{1}{x-2}-\frac{1}{x-3}-\frac{1}{x-4}-\frac{1}{x-5})\\ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt {\frac{(x-1) ( x-2)}{(x-3 )(x-4 ) (x-5)}}(\frac{1}{x-1}+\frac{1}{x-2}-\frac{1}{x-3}-\frac{1}{x-4}-\frac{1}{x-5})
Therefore, the answer is   \frac{1}{2}\sqrt {\frac{(x-1) ( x-2)}{(x-3 )(x-4 ) (x-5)}}(\frac{1}{x-1}+\frac{1}{x-2}-\frac{1}{x-3}-\frac{1}{x-4}-\frac{1}{x-5})
