To find the reciprocal of a fraction, you just need to "flip" it. To check your work, you multiply the fraction and the reciprocal to get 1.
the reciprocal if 2/3 is 3/2
The answer is B
4/28 = 1/7 when dividing both numerator & denominator by 4 and this would be the simplified fraction.
You could use 1/7 to multiply with others to get other ratios that are equal to 4/28 or you could just use 4/28.
For example:
1/7 = 7/49
or
4/28 = 8/56
The answer is $654.06.
5.5% of $575 is $31.63. 575 x 0.055 = 31.63
This means that in one year he earns $31.63. In two years it will be $63.25 (31.63 x 2 = 63.25)
Then in half a year it will be $15.81 (31.63/2 = 15.81)
Finally add 15.81 and 63.25 to get $79.06 which you then add to the initial $575 to get the total amount earned in 2 1/2 years which is $654.06.
Is there a picture to go with it?
