Morphology
administrable = administer (transparent) = administer + able
Formed by the verb 'administer' + the productive suffix '-able', yielding 'capable of being administered', which is directly inferable.
Etymology
Administrable comes from the verb administer, built from ad- ('to') and minister ('serve'), a root you see in administration and minister. So, administrable means 'able to be given or managed', like a medicine you can give or a rule you can carry out.
