To find the product, first, we need to turn the two fractions into improper fractions.

3 3/4 = (3 × 4 + 3) / 4 = 15/4

1 1/10 = (1 × 10 + 1) / 10 = 11/10

Now, we find the receprical of the second fraction and multiply.

11/10 receprical = 10/11

10/11 × 15/4 = 150/44

Now, we simplify.

150/44 = 75/22 = 3 11/22 = 3 1/2

Your answer is 3 1/2.

Hope this helps!
