The reciprocal of a number is 1 over the number or 1 divided by the number. EXAMPLE : The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5. The reciprocal of 18.7 is 1/18.7. A fraction can also have a reciprocal : The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5 (or 5/1) The reciprocal of 18/23 is 1/18/23 = 23/18.
2 1 over 5 is 11/5. So, its reciprocal is 5/11
The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5.
The reciprocal of 5/8 is 8/5 The reciprocal of a fraction is its inverted form, e.g. the reciprocal of a/b is b/a.
1 is the reciprocal of 1.

5 over 3 and 1
1 5/9 = 14/9 So the reciprocal is 9/14.
2 1 over 5 is 11/5. So, its reciprocal is 5/11
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction then the reciprocal can be found: 1/(2 1/5) = 1/((5×2+1)/5) = 1/(11/5) = 5/11
the reciprocal of 5 is 1/5!!
The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5.
The reciprocal of 5/8 is 8/5 The reciprocal of a fraction is its inverted form, e.g. the reciprocal of a/b is b/a.
the reciprocal of 2/5 is 5/2
The answer is: 2/7 More information from "http://en.allexperts.com/q/Basic-Math-657/reciprocal.htm": A reciprocal is a number that you multiply by so that the result equals 1. The easiest way to find it is to just flip the fraction over. Here's an example: What is the reciprocal of 3? 3 is the same as 3/1, so we flip and the reciprocal is 1/3 Reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4 Reciprocal of 2 1/2? Trciky! Change to a fraction --> 5/2, then flip --> 2/5
1 is the reciprocal of 1.
-1/5 is the reciprocal of -5
