sqrt(16/9) = sqrt(16) / sqrt(9) = 4/3 .
That's the square root of positive 16/9. There is no square root of a negative number, unless
you want to get into what's called "imaginary" numbers in math and engineering.
If you want the square root of -(16/9), or (-16)/9, or 16/(-9), in each case it's (4/3)i .
That little ' i ' is the unit imaginary number, defined as the square root of (-1).
That's probably as far into it as we ought to go for right now.

The square root of 49 over 16 can be calculated by taking the square root of the numerator and the denominator separately. The square root of 49 is 7, and the square root of 16 is 4. Therefore, the square root of 49 over 16 is 7/4.

The negative square root of 16 is -4. It can be written as the ratio of 792 to -198, so it's rational.
The negative square root of 16 can be either +4 or -4 . Both are correct.
The positive square root of 256 is 16 because 16 multiplied by 16 equals 256. The negative square root of 256 is -16 because -16 multiplied by -16 also equals 256. In general, for any positive number x, the square roots of x are both a positive and a negative number, with the positive square root being the principal square root.
-16 i think
The square root of the fraction 16 over 169 is 4 over 13.
4 over square root of 16 simplifies to 1 !
it is impossible to get the square root of a negative, since the definition of a square root is something times itself. example: the square root of 16 is 4 because 4 x 4 = 16. and a negative times a negative is a positive, so the square root of a negative is impossible. however, you can do the square root of 121 (which is 11) and make the 11 a negative. 11 x 11 = 121 and -11 x -11 = 121 but you could make 11 negative after the fact, if that is what you wanted to do.
