Answer 2

To find : sum of $\frac{4}{7}$  and reciprocal of $\frac{1}{2}$  .

Solution :

• According to question we have to find the sum of  $\frac{4}{7}$  and reciprocal of $\frac{1}{2}$ .

• Before adding both rational numbers we find reciprocal of $\frac{1}{2}$ .
• Reciprocal is to turn fraction upside down .

• Therefore , reciprocal of $\frac{1}{2}$  is $\frac{2}{1}$ $= 2$ .

• Now , adding $\frac{4}{7}$ and $2$ .

        $\frac{4}{7} + 2 \\= \frac{18}{7}$  

Hence , correct answer is $\frac{18}{7}$ .
