Answer:
We will learn the reciprocal of a rational number.
For every non-zero rational number a/b there exists a rational number b/a such that
a/b × b/a = 1 = b/a × a/b
The rational number b/a is called the multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of a/b and is denoted by (a/b)-1.
The reciprocal of 12 is 1/12
The reciprocal of 5/16 is 16/5.
The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3 i.e., (3/4)^-1 = 4/3.
The reciprocal of -5/12 is 12/-5 i.e., (-5/12)^-1 = 12/-5.
The reciprocal of (-14)/17 is 17/-14 i.e., (-17)/14.
The reciprocal of -8 is 1/-8 i.e., (-1)/8.
The reciprocal of -5 is 1/-5, since -5 × 1/-5 = -5/1 × 1/-5 = -5 × 1/-5 × 1 = 1.
