In general, the Rational Number Obtained after interchanging the Numerator and Denominator is called Reciprocal of a Rational Number. Go through the entire article to learn how to find the Reciprocal of a Rational Number. Check out examples of finding the Reciprocal of\u00a0Rational Numbers<\/a>\u00a0in the further sections and solve related problems easily.<\/p>\n Reciprocal of a Rational Number means interchanging of numerator and denominator. Let us assume a Non-Zero Rational Number a\/b there exists a rational number b\/a such that<\/p>\n a\/b*b\/a=1<\/p>\n Here the rational number b\/a is called the Reciprocal or Multiplicative Inverse of a\/b and is denoted by (a\/b)-1<\/sup>.<\/p>\n 1. Find the Reciprocal of -3\/2?<\/p>\n Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n Given Rational Number is -3\/2<\/p>\n Numerator = -3<\/p>\n Denominator = 2<\/p>\n Interchanging the Numerator and Denominator to obtain the Reciprocal i.e. we have the Numerator = 2, Denominator = -3<\/p>\n Resultant Rational Number = 2\/-3<\/p>\n Reciprocal of a Rational Number is 2\/-3.<\/p>\n 2. Find the reciprocal of 3\/11*4\/5?<\/p>\n Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n Given Expression is 3\/11*4\/5<\/p>\n = 3*4\/11*5<\/p>\n = 12\/55<\/p>\n Reciprocal of 12\/55 is 55\/12 i.e. after Interchanging the Numerator and Denominator.<\/p>\n 3. Find the reciprocal of -4\/3 \u00d7 7\/-8?<\/p>\n Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n Given Rational Expression is -4\/3 \u00d7 7\/-8<\/p>\n = -4*7\/3*-8<\/p>\n = -28\/-24<\/p>\n = 7\/6<\/p>\n The reciprocal of 7\/6 is 6\/7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In general, the Rational Number Obtained after interchanging the Numerator and Denominator is called Reciprocal of a Rational Number.
