What is the reciprocal of 8/5?

  1. 8/5

  2. 5/8

  3. 1/8

  4. 0.8

The correct answer is: 5/8

The reciprocal of a number is when the number is flipped, with the numerator becoming the denominator and the denominator becoming the numerator. In this case, the reciprocal of 8/5 is 5/8. Option A would just give back the original number, option C is incorrect as the numerator and denominator are switched, and option D is a decimal instead of a fraction form. Thus, the correct answer is B.
