Answer:

Yes, 17/4572 is a rational number.

Explanation:

Rational Number--

A rational number is a number which could be expressed in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero.

Also, the decimal expansion of such a number is terminating or a repeating decimal.

Here we have the number as:

17/4573

i.e. p=17 and q=4573≠0

Hence, the given number is a decimal number.
