No it is not.
12/3 = 5/3 and its reciprocal is 3/5
You make it an improper fraction and switch the bottom and top numbers
42/7 is an improper fraction.
To find the reciprocal of a fraction, you turn it upside down. So the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1, or just 2.
To find the reciprocal of a whole number, you must first write it as a fraction. You do this by writing x/1, if the number is 4, it would be 4/1. Then you would find the reciprocal of that fraction. So using the same example, the reciprocal of 4 is 1/4.
the reciprocal of a number is 1 divided by the number. if you want to find the reciprocal of a fraction you would need to swap the fraction numbers around and then multiply by 1. and then divide the answer.It is 1 divided by the number.

Yes - after converting to an improper fraction, you flip it. Example: find the reciprocal (i.e., the multiplicative inverse) of 2 1/2 (two and a half). Reciprocal of (2 1/2) = reciprocal of (5/2) = 2/5.
It is called the reciprocal of a fraction when the fraction is turned upside down.To find reciprocal of a mixed number, convert the whole number to the fraction and create an improper fraction: 22/4 becomes 10/4 and the reciprocal is 4/10
To get the reciprocal of a fraction, exchange the numerator and denominator.
To change an improper fraction to a proper fraction a person has to find the lowest common denominator. For example, the fraction 3/6 can be broken down to 1/2 by dividing the 6 by the 3 and finding the common denominator to be 2.
The reciprocal of the fraction is simply the fraction raised to the -1 power. Simply "flip the fraction upside down" to find the reciprocal. e.g. 3/23 has a reciprocal of 23/3.
The answer depends on the binary operator between the two fractions which has not been specified.
If the improper fraction is greter than 0 it is the value of the improper fraction and if the improper fraction is less than 0, it is the negative of the value of the fraction.
It is an improper fraction when the numerator is greater than the denominator
To find the reciprocal of 3 2/5, you would have to change that to an improper fraction, then make the denominator the numerator. (Ex. 3/4---4/3 OR 4/3---3/4)
1/3. The fraction for 3 is 3/1, and to find a reciprocal, you have to flip the fraction.
42/7 is an improper fraction.
