Solution

To identify the rational numbers from the given list, we first recall that a rational number is any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers (a fraction), including terminating decimals and repeating decimals.

Analysis of each number:

  • 2\sqrt{2} (A): Irrational. It's a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
  • 5.39-5.39 (B): Rational. It is a terminating decimal and can be written as 539100-\frac{539}{100}.
  • 14-14 (C): Rational. It is an integer, which can be expressed as 141\frac{-14}{1}.
  • 00 (D): Rational. It is an integer, which can be expressed as 01\frac{0}{1}.
  • 0.0830.08\overline{3} (E): Rational. This is a repeating decimal and can be written as a fraction 831000\frac{83}{1000}.
  • 4\sqrt{4} (F): Rational. 4=2\sqrt{4} = 2, which is an integer, and can be written as 21\frac{2}{1}.
  • 9.121121112111129.12112111211112 \ldots (G): Irrational. This is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal.
  • 15.99915.999 (H): Rational. It is a terminating decimal and can be written as 159991000\frac{15999}{1000}.
  • 1947\frac{19}{47} (I): Rational. It is a fraction of two integers.
  • 11-\sqrt{11} (J): Irrational. It is a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
  • 24242424 (K): Rational. It is an integer, which can be written as 24241\frac{2424}{1}.
  • 38-\frac{3}{8} (L): Rational. It is a fraction of two integers.

Rational numbers in the list are:

  • B. 5.39-5.39
  • C. 14-14
  • D. 00
  • E. 0.0830.08\overline{3}
  • F. 4=2\sqrt{4} = 2
  • H. 15.99915.999
  • I. 1947\frac{19}{47}
  • K. 24242424
  • L. 38-\frac{3}{8}

Thus, the correct answers are B, C, D, E, F, H, I, K, and L.
