Respuesta :

[tex]\text{the quotient }\frac{20}{\sqrt[]{16}}\text{ is an rational number}[/tex]

because, the quotient has an integer in its denominator

Explanation

A rational number is a number that is expressed as the ratio of two integers

[tex]\frac{p}{q}[/tex]

hence

for

[tex]\frac{20}{\sqrt{16}}[/tex]

we can solve the root in the denominator, so we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{20}{\sqrt{16}} \\ \frac{20}{\sqrt[]{16}}=\frac{20}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

so, as the number can be expressed as the ratio of two integers ( 20 and 4) we can conclude

[tex]\text{the quotient }\frac{20}{\sqrt[]{16}}\text{ is a rational number}[/tex]

because, the quotient has an integer in its denominator

I hope this helps you
