The reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by that number. In this case, the number is 3 and 1/5. To find the reciprocal, you would first convert 3 and 1/5 to an improper fraction, which is 16/5. Then, you would take the reciprocal by dividing 1 by 16/5, which is equivalent to multiplying by the reciprocal of 16/5, giving you 5/16. Therefore, the reciprocal of 3 and 1/5 is 5/16.
