== The sum of any number and zero is that number.(2+0== 2) == the sum of any number and zero is that number. (2+0=2)
Say, find the reciprocal of 2 = 1/2 Reciprocal of 1/2 = 2
The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2 (one-half). The reciprocal of any number is 1/number. Simply stated: The reciprocal of any number is the inverse of that number. Let some number, any number, be represented by 'a'. The reciprocal of 'a' is 1/'a'.
Suppose the numbers are x and y Then the sum of their reciprocals is 1/x + 1/y = y/xy + x/xy = (y+x)/xy = 10/20 = 1/2
The reciprocal of a number plus the reciprocal of twice the number equals Find the number. 1/2 find the number

A number multiplied with it's reciprocal must be one. So for example if you have -(1/2), than it's reciprocal is -2.
Ah, what a happy little math question we have here! To find the reciprocal of a number, you simply flip it upside down. So, the reciprocal of 2 is 1/2 and the reciprocal of 7 is 1/7. Remember, there are no mistakes in math, just happy little accidents!
1/x + 1/y y/xy + x/xy (y+x)/xy= 10/20 10/20=1/2 1/2 is the answer.
The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2 (one-half). The reciprocal of any number is 1/number. Simply stated: The reciprocal of any number is the inverse of that number. Let some number, any number, be represented by 'a'. The reciprocal of 'a' is 1/'a'.
Suppose the numbers are x and y Then the sum of their reciprocals is 1/x + 1/y = y/xy + x/xy = (y+x)/xy = 10/20 = 1/2
To find the reciprocal of a fraction, you turn it upside down. So the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1, or just 2.
Oh, dude, the reciprocal of a number is just 1 divided by that number. So, the reciprocal of 2 is 1/2, and the reciprocal of 1/3 is 3. So, the reciprocal of 2 and 1/3 is 1/(2 + 1/3) which simplifies to 3/7. Easy peasy, like basic math stuff, you know?
The reciprocal of a number is one divided by the number. The product of a number and its reciprocal equals one.The easiest way to get the reciprocal of a number is to put the number in the form of a fraction then swap the numerator with the denominator.The reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.The reciprocal of 123/5564 is 5564/123.The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5.The reciprocal of 73 is 1/73.The reciprocal of x is 1/x.
