Neither of them, it depends on the number.

Answer 1

Jolene is correct.

When you multiply two rational numbers (which are numbers that can be expressed as the quotient of two integers), the product will always be rational. Therefore, Malanna's statement that the product will be irrational is incorrect.

So, the correct response is: Jolene.
