Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers (i.e., a fraction where the numerator and denominator are both integers).
In this case, we can express 86.76 repeating as the fraction:
8676/100 = 8676 ÷ 100
Simplifying this fraction, we get:
8676/100 = 8676 ÷ 4 ÷ 25 = 2169/25
Since 2169 and 25 are both integers, we have expressed 86.76 repeating as a ratio of two integers, and therefore it is a rational number.
