Question

Solve and write the reciprocal of the answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1(1/2) =0.5

2(5/8)= 1.25

1.25+0.25=1.75

Answer 2

Answer:

$1 \frac{1}{2} + 2 \frac{5}{8} \\ = (1 + 2) + ( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{8} ) \\ = 3 + \frac{9}{8} \\ = 3 \frac{9}{8} \\ \\ \\ \huge or \\ \\ \\ 1 \frac{1}{2} + 2 \frac{5}{8} \\ = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{21}{8} \\ = \frac{24 + 42}{16} \\ = \frac{66}{16} \\ = 3 \frac{9}{8}$

Reciprocal of the result is

$\frac{ \cancel{16} \: ^{8} }{ \cancel{66} \: _{33}} = \frac{8}{33}$
