RossThe reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by that number. In this case, the number is 2 and 1/3. To find the reciprocal, you first convert the mixed number 2 1/3 to an improper fraction, which is 7/3. Then, you take the reciprocal by dividing 1 by 7/3, which is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal of 7/3, giving you 3/7 as the reciprocal of 2 and 1/3.
