To determine if the product 6.57 x 2.67534 is rational or irrational, we need to multiply these numbers and see if the result can be expressed as a fraction or as a terminating or repeating decimal.
6.57 * 2.67534 = 17.5736978
Since 17.5736978 is a terminating decimal (it has a finite number of decimal places), we can express it as a fraction. Therefore, the product is rational.
Therefore, the correct statement is:
b) the product is rational
