Reciprocal numbers multiply to 1. They are easy to find: Just Flip Them! To find thenegative reciprocal, flip the number and then if it's positive make it negative -- and if it's negative make it positive!

Answer: 4/3

Step-by-step explanation: When we use the word "negative reciprocal",

it's just a fancy way of saying flip the fraction and change the sign.

So the negative reciprocal of -3/4 is 4/3.
