Question

If the reciprocal of 0.08 is 12.5 what is the reciprocal of 80​

Answer 1

hello!

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

If we have a fraction, then the numerator & denominator switch places.

Please consult the following formula for more details:-

`\tt{The~reciprocal~of~a~is~(1)/(a) }`

According to the formula, the reciprocal of 80 is:-

`\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{(1)/(80) }}}\longleftarrow\text{the reciprocal of 80}}}`

Decimal form:-

`\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{0.0125}}}\longleftarrow\sf{decimal~form}}`

note:-

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