Question
**Problem Statement: Find the Range of K for Stability**

Consider the equation:

\[
\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{64 - K}{K - 16}}
\]

Identify the range of \( K \) that ensures system stability. Choose the correct option:

(a) A range doesn’t exist to stabilize the system.

(b) \( 16 \leq K \)

(c) \( K < 64 \)

(d) \( 16 \leq K < 64 \)

**Analysis:**

To determine the correct option, analyze the stability of the system by considering the values of \( K \) for which the denominator does not become zero and the fraction is defined. 

1. **Denominator Considerations:**
   - The expression \( \frac{64 - K}{K - 16} \) necessitates that \( K \neq 16 \).

2. **Range for K:**
   - To avoid division by zero, the term \( K \neq 16 \), and since \( 64 - K \) must be positive for overall positivity, we derive:
     - \( K < 64 \)
     - \( K > 16 \)

Thus, conclude with the correct range that stabilizes the system:

- **Correct Answer: (d) \( 16 \leq K < 64 \)**

This indicates that the system will remain stable when \( K \) is in the range from 16 to less than 64, inclusive of 16 but excluding 64.
