A reciprocal, or multiplicative inverse, is simply one of a pair of numbers that, when multiplied together, equal 1. ... For example, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2 (or 1-1/2) , because 2/3 x 3/2 = 1. The reciprocal of 7 is 1/7 because 7 x 1/7 = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The reciprocal of a given number when multiplied by that number gives one as a product. ... Thus, it is also called the multiplicative inverse. In math, reciprocal can simply be defined as the inverse of a number or a value. For a real number n, reciprocal is 1/n, such as reciprocal of 3 is 1/3.
  • in algebra if for example you can take (2α) means you need to tell as the reciprocal of a is 2
