Answer

-11/4

Work Step by Step

When taking a square root of a fraction, we take the square root of the numerator (top of the fraction) and denominator (bottom of the fraction) separately. The square root of 121 is 11, and the square root of 16 is 4, giving us an answer of 11/4. However, there is a negative in front of the square root, so we make the answer negative.
