Answer:

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the reciprocal you have to make the fraction a mixed number by multiplying the denominator by the whole number then adding the numerator, in this case it would give you 16/5. Since the reciprocal is the number that you multiply to get one, if you switch the denominator and the numerator, you get 5/16.

You can check your work by multiplying the numbers together, if it equals one, your reciprocal is correct, if not, then you may have to do it again.

Rachel saved money to buy art supplies. She used 13 of her savings to buy brushes. She used 35 of her savings to buy paint. What

vekshin1

Given:

Rachel used $\dfrac{1}{3}$ of her savings to buy brushes.

She used $\dfrac{3}{5}$ of her savings to buy paint.

To find:

The fraction for remaining savings.

Solution:

Fraction that Rachel used of her savings to buy brushes and paint is

$\text{Fraction for used amount}=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{3}{5}$

$=\dfrac{5+9}{15}$

$=\dfrac{14}{15}$

Now,

$\text{Fraction for remaining savings}=1-\text{Fraction for used amount}$

$\text{Fraction for remaining savings}=1-\dfrac{14}{15}$

$\text{Fraction for remaining savings}=\dfrac{1}{15}$

Therefore, $\dfrac{1}{15}$ of her savings is remaining.
