The reciprocal of one number is 2.4, and the other number is one with three fifths. What is the sum of these two numbers
2.4=12/5
The reciprocal of a number is 12 / 5
So this number is 1 / (12 / 5) = 5 / 12
One and three fifths = 1 + 3 / 5 = 8 / 5
So their sum = 5 / 12 + 8 / 5 = 25 / 60 + 96 / 60 = 121 / 60 = 2 + 1 / 60
