The expression \( 512 \cdot \sqrt{16} \) equals \( 512 \cdot 4 \), which simplifies to 2048. Since both 512 and \( \sqrt{16} \) are rational numbers, their product is also rational.

The expression \( \frac{5}{12} \cdot \sqrt{16} \) simplifies to \( \frac{5}{12} \cdot 4 \), which equals \( \frac{20}{12} \) or \( \frac{5}{3} \). Since both \( \frac{5}{12} \) and \( \sqrt{16} \) (which is 4) are rational numbers, their product is also rational.
