Question

What is the reciprocal of `6 2/7`?

Answer 1

`7/44`

Explanation:

The reciprocal is a number that you multiply your original number by, and you get 1.

The reciprocal of 1/4, for example, is 4.

`6 2/7= 44/7`, and the reciprocal of that is `7/44`

So you can see the general procedure. If it's not a fraction, turn it into one. (Whole numbers are fractions, for example, `6 = 6/1`.)

Then, turn it upside down, and that's your reciprocal.
