Answer:
Part a) [tex]\frac{1}{200}[/tex]
Part b) [tex]\frac{1}{450}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A reciprocal of a rational number [tex]\frac{p}{q}[/tex] is obtained by changing the numerator and denominator, so the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator obtaining [tex]\frac{q}{p}[/tex]
Part a) we have
200
we know that
the given number can be expressed as [tex]\frac{200}{1}[/tex]
so
changing the numerator and denominator
The reciprocal is equal to [tex]\frac{1}{200}[/tex]
Part b) we have
450
we know that
the given number can be expressed as [tex]\frac{450}{1}[/tex]
so
changing the numerator and denominator
The reciprocal is equal to [tex]\frac{1}{450}[/tex]
