Question

what must be added to 1/a to make it equal to its reciprocal.


I want detailed Explaination

Answer 1

resiprocal is nothing but inverse of a fraction...
ex
4 -1/4
2/3 - 3/2

hence reciprocal of 1/a is a.

hope this works...

Answer 2

Let the no. =x

1/a+x=a

1+ax/a=a

1+ax=a×a

1+ax=a^2

ax=x^2-1

x=a^2-1/a

HOPE IT WILL HELP ✌ ✌
