Answer 1

Multiply 5x11, and add it to 5/11, to turn the number into a single fraction; 60/11. The reciprocal is this number flipped upside down, so the solution is 11/60.

Answer 2

To find the reciprocal of a fraction you'd switch the numerator with the denominator but since this is a mixed number, multiply the whole number by the denominator then add the numerator and you get a improper fraction and if you get that to find the reciprocal of it, switch the numerator with the denominator(ex. 3 4/5= 3X5=15, 15+4=19, 19/5, reciprocal: 5/19)
