Answer

$\left\{-\dfrac{9}{4},-2,0,0.6,6,\dfrac{30}{3}\right\}$

Work Step by Step

The expression $0.6$ from the given set, $ \left\{-\dfrac{9}{4},-2,-\sqrt{2},0,0.6,\sqrt{11},\sqrt{-8},6,\dfrac{30}{3}\right\} $ is equivalent to $\dfrac{6}{10}$. The number $-2$ is equivalent to $\dfrac{-2}{1}$. The number $0$ is the same as $\dfrac{0}{1}$, and the number $6$ is the same as $\dfrac{6}{1}$. Since rational numbers numbers are numbers that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, then the rational numbers in the given set are \begin{align*} \left\{-\dfrac{9}{4},-2,0,0.6,6,\dfrac{30}{3}\right\} .\end{align*}
