Hi there!!

First, we are going to find the improper fraction of each mixed number.

10 1/3 >>>>> 10*3+1=31 31/3

2 2/3 >>>>> 2*3+2=8. 8/3

5 1/3 >>>>>> 5*3+1 = 16. 16/3

TO find the reciprocal, we switch the numerator with the denominator.

31/3 changes to 3/31, 8/3 changes to 3/8, and finally 16/3 changes to 3/16.


Your answer is:

3/31
3/8
3/16

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions:)
