To get the reciprocal of a fraction, you simply have to turn the fraction upside down and change the numerator to the denominator and vice-versa. When you have a whole # with it, you simply have to add the whole # to the fraction.
For example:
2 2/3
2=6/3
so 6/3+2/3 = 8/3
Now that you know 2 2/3 = 8/3 just turn it upside down to 3/8.
So:
Reciprocal of 2 2/3 = 3/8
3/2 or three halves
it's 2 and 3/2 22/3 = 8/3 and therefore the reciprocal = 3/8
3/2
To divide 400 by two thirds, you can multiply 400 by the reciprocal of two thirds, which is three halves. This calculation looks like: 400 × (3/2) = 600. Therefore, 400 divided by two thirds equals 600.
To find out how many one-sixths are in two-thirds, you can divide two-thirds by one-sixth. This is done by multiplying two-thirds by the reciprocal of one-sixth, which is six. So, (2/3) ÷ (1/6) = (2/3) × (6/1) = 12/3 = 4. Therefore, there are four one-sixths in two-thirds.
3/2 or 1.5
3/2 or three halves
it's 2 and 3/2 22/3 = 8/3 and therefore the reciprocal = 3/8
The reciprocal of a number is the multiplicative inverse of that number. The reciprocal of two thirds is three halves (1 divided by 2/3 is the same as 1 multiplied by 3/2). Therefore, the product of two thirds and its reciprocal (three halves) is 1.
The reciprocal of two thirds is three halves.
3/2
The reciprocal of two thirds is three halves - which is one and a half (1.5).
To divide 400 by two thirds, you can multiply 400 by the reciprocal of two thirds, which is three halves. This calculation looks like: 400 × (3/2) = 600. Therefore, 400 divided by two thirds equals 600.
To find out how many one-sixths are in two-thirds, you can divide two-thirds by one-sixth. This is done by multiplying two-thirds by the reciprocal of one-sixth, which is six. So, (2/3) ÷ (1/6) = (2/3) × (6/1) = 12/3 = 4. Therefore, there are four one-sixths in two-thirds.
Solve this in two steps: 1) Convert your fraction to an improper fraction, 2) exchange the numerator and the denominator. So, 4 and 2/3 is equal to 14/3. the reciprocal of that is 3/14.
3/4 . Its reciprocal is 4/3. You just turn the fraction over. For a whole such '2' its reciprocal is '1/2'.
two thirds because you multiply by the reciprocal of three tenths which is ten thirds
