Best Answer

A reciprocal is the number you have to multiply a given number by to get 1. Ex) you have to multiply 2 by 1/2 to get 1. therefore the reciprocal of 2 is 1/2

As implied above, a property of two reciprocals is that their product equals 1.

Another name for "reciprocal" is "multiplicative inverse."
