Answer:
2/17
Explanation:
Personally, I would start by making this into an improper fraction. It helps.
So to do that if we have:
a b/c
we do a*c+b/c
a = 8
b = 1
c = 2
The improper fraction would be 17/2
To find the reciprocal, just switch the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) around
The answer would be: 2/17
