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.
you get a completely different fraction
To put fractions into opposite fractions, all you have to do is flip it so that the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator. This is called a reciprocal. Example: The opposite of 3/5 is 5/3
you switch the numerator with the denominator then multiply the numerator first then the denominator.
numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator

Flip the numerator and denominator. For example, reciprocal of 3/2 is 2/3.
A fraction has a numerator and a denominator.
you switch the numerator with the denominator then multiply the numerator first then the denominator.
The same numerator as which numerator and the same denominator as which denominator?
To put fractions into opposite fractions, all you have to do is flip it so that the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator. This is called a reciprocal. Example: The opposite of 3/5 is 5/3
numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator
5/2 To find the reciprocal, you flip the top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) of the fraction.
"The numerator and denominator are known as the fraction bar.”
You switch its numerator(top number) with its denominator(Bottom number)
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.
