The reciprocal of a fraction is formed by turning it upside down. The reciprocal of 3/5 is 5/3 which can also be written as the mixed number 1 2/3
The reciprocal of any number is one over that number. Here's some examples and their reciprocals: 3 : 1/3 5 : 1/5 1/2 : 1/ (1/2) = 2 The reciprocal of 3 is 1/3 (one third).
The reciprocal of 35 is 1/35 The reciprocal of 3/5 is 5/3
The answer is: 2/7 More information from "http://en.allexperts.com/q/Basic-Math-657/reciprocal.htm": A reciprocal is a number that you multiply by so that the result equals 1. The easiest way to find it is to just flip the fraction over. Here's an example: What is the reciprocal of 3? 3 is the same as 3/1, so we flip and the reciprocal is 1/3 Reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4 Reciprocal of 2 1/2? Trciky! Change to a fraction --> 5/2, then flip --> 2/5
52/3 = 17/3 So the reciprocal is 3/17

The reciprocal of 35 is 1/35 The reciprocal of 3/5 is 5/3
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction then the reciprocal can be found: 1/(2 1/5) = 1/((5×2+1)/5) = 1/(11/5) = 5/11

5 over 1
3 over 5
52/3 = 17/3 So the reciprocal is 3/17
The reciprocal of 5/15 is 15/5. This can be simplified to 3.
The reciprocal of a number is 1 over the number or 1 divided by the number. EXAMPLE : The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5. The reciprocal of 18.7 is 1/18.7. A fraction can also have a reciprocal : The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5 (or 5/1) The reciprocal of 18/23 is 1/18/23 = 23/18.
To get the reciprocal of a fraction, just the fraction. For example, the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1 or just plain 5.
