hello!

In order to find the reciprocal of a number, we should flop it over.

In order to find the reciprocal of a fraction, then the numerator & denominator switch places.

Kindly consult the following formula for more details:-


\sf{The~reciprocal~of~a~is~\displaystyle(1)/(a)}


\sf{The~reciprocal~of~\displaystyle(a)/(b) ~is~(b)/(a)}

According to the formula, the reciprocals are;-


\sf{Reciprocal \ of \ 18:-{\boxed{\displaystyle(1)/(18)}}


\sf{Reciprocal~of~\displaystyle(2)/(3):- {\boxed{(3)/(2)}

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
