you get a completely different fraction
When you wish to divide by a fraction, you would flip the divisor and multiply by the new fraction.
when you flip the numerator and denominator you call it the reciprocal. hope it helped.
When dividing, the numerator goes inside the box, which is known as the dividend. The denominator goes outside the box, which is the divisor. The division process involves dividing the numerator by the denominator to find the quotient.
Since a reciprocal is basically a fraction flipped over itself, make 1 4/5 an improper fraction- 9/5. Now flip the numerator and denominator around- 5/9, That's the reciprocal.
The reciprocal of a fraction is found by flipping the numerator and denominator. Therefore, the reciprocal of 11 over 16 is 16 over 11. This means that if you multiply 11 over 16 by its reciprocal, you will get 1, as they are multiplicative inverses of each other.

You switch its numerator(top number) with its denominator(Bottom number)
5/2 To find the reciprocal, you flip the top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) of the fraction.
To solve an unrelated fraction you must, numerator multiplied by the numerator and denominator multiplied by denominator. When dividing fractions with the different/unrelated denominators, it’s a little bit more complicated. What you have to do is flip (find the inverse) the second fraction then proceed as if your multiplying the fractions.
The reciprocal of a fraction is basically the same fraction flip-flopped. So the numerator becomes the denominator, and the denominator becomes the denominator. So for seven over three, the reciprocal would be three over seven.
First you need to make the mixed number into a improper fraction. To do this, take the denominator times the number in front. Then add the result to the numerator. Then the improper fraction is that result over the denominator. _______________________________________________________________ If X is the leading number, D is the denominator, N is the numerator: X and N/D=(X*D+N)/D _______________________________________________________________ Then take this new fraction and flip the numerator and the denominator: D/(X*D+N) _______________________________________________________________ So to get the reciprocal of a mixed number in one step, the reciprocal's: numerator is equal to the denominator of the mixed number; denominator is equal to the leading number multiplied by the denominator added to the numerator.

Yes. If you mean dividing a whole number INTO a fraction here is how you do it. Take the whole number and write it as a fraction where the whole number is the numerator (top part of the fraction) and the number "1" is the denominator (the bottom part of the fraction). Now, turn that fraction upsides down so that the "1" is on top and the whole number is on the bottom. Multiply the numerator of the original fraction times the "1" giving you the original numerator as the new numerator. Multiply the whole number times the original denominator giving you the new denominator. If you means dividing the fraction into the whole number it is similar. Write the whole number as a fraction (as above) with 1 in the denominator. Then flip the fraction over and multiply the two numerators, the two denominators and you have your answer.
Make it a fraction, flip the numerator and denominator, and the exponent is no long negative. For example 4-3 = 1/43 = 1/64
A mixed number is simply a whole number and a fraction. The value of a mixed number would be the whole number added to the fraction. To find its reciprocal: _______________________________________________________________ 1. You need to make the mixed number into a improper fraction. To do this, take the denominator times the number in front. Then add the result to the numerator. Then the improper fraction is that result over the denominator. A mixed number is formatted as a leading number and a fraction. If X is the leading number, D is the denominator, N is the numerator: X and N/D=(X*D+N)/D _______________________________________________________________ 2. Then take this new fraction and flip the numerator and the denominator: D/(X*D+N) _______________________________________________________________ So to get the reciprocal of a mixed number in one step, the reciprocal's: numerator is equal to the denominator of the mixed number; denominator is equal to the leading number multiplied by the denominator added to the numerator: D/(X*D+N)
