Answer:

No, 64/81 is not a perfect square.

Explanation:

A perfect square is the product of an integer and itself.

For example: 6 and 6 is 36, 7 and 7 is 49.

In order to see if this number is a perfect squares, we just need to do the inverse, or find the square root of it.

so


√(64/81)

now we have 8/9

8/9 is 0.889 which is not a whole number, and therefore 64/81 is not a perfect square.
