3/2 or three halves
3/4 . Its reciprocal is 4/3. You just turn the fraction over. For a whole such '2' its reciprocal is '1/2'.
it's 2 and 3/2 22/3 = 8/3 and therefore the reciprocal = 3/8
Negative four thirds
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal. In this instance, 486 / 2/3 = 486 x 3/2 = 729.

The reciprocal of two thirds is three halves.
The reciprocal of two thirds is three halves - which is one and a half (1.5).
First, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2. The product of 2/3 and 3/2 is: 2/3*3/2 = 1 Any fraction times its reciprocal always equals 1.
Negative four thirds
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal. In this instance, 486 / 2/3 = 486 x 3/2 = 729.
to find the reciprocal you would want to make 2 3/4 an impropper fraction. To do that you need to multiply the whole number by the denominator. In this case the 2 by the 4. From that you get 8. Then you add that number to the numerator. So it would be 8+3=11. Put this number over 4 and you have 11/4. Then you can find the reciprocal which would be that number upside down. Your reciprocal is 4/11.
Solve this in two steps: 1) Convert your fraction to an improper fraction, 2) exchange the numerator and the denominator. So, 4 and 2/3 is equal to 14/3. the reciprocal of that is 3/14.
