Fist we have to turn the mixed numeral 8 1/4 into an improper fraction. We do this by multiplying 4 by 8 which is 32. Then we add the numerator, 1 which gives us 33. So now we have 33/4. Then we find the reciprocal of 1/2. To do this we simply flip the fraction So 1/2 becomes 2/1 33/4 x 2/1 = 66/4 Since 66/4 is an improper fraction we have to change it into a mixed number. We can do this dividing 66 by 4. 66 divided by four = 16 1/2 I hope this helps!
