To rewrite \( 25 \frac{1}{4} \) using a root, we can express it as:

\[ 25 \frac{1}{4} = 25 + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{100}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{101}{4} \]

However, a more straightforward approach to express \( 25 \frac{1}{4} \) using roots is to recognize that:

\[ 25 \frac{1}{4} = 25 + \frac{1}{4} = 25 + 0.25 = 25.25 \]

This doesn't directly translate to a root form.

Looking at the provided options, the one that aligns best with common root expressions is:

**Option:** \( \sqrt[4]{25} \)

This can represent the same numeric value when calculated as \( \sqrt[4]{25^4} \), though it isn't a direct representation of \( 25\frac{1}{4} \).

However, if we must pick from the responses given, the strong contender that indicates using a root is:

**Response:** \( \text{root index } 4 \text{ Start Root 25 End Root} \)

This option simply represents \( \sqrt[4]{25} \), though it doesn't accurately represent \( 25 \frac{1}{4} \) numerically as an equivalent expression.

If this question's goal were purely about writing \( 25 \frac{1}{4} \) in root notation while disregarding the numeric accuracy, the correct answer among the presented choices would indeed be option reflecting the fourth root notation.
