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

"Flopping over" is not the same as "changing the sign of the number"

So what does "flopping over" actually mean?

Consult the following formula:-

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

According to the formula,

$\sf{The~reciprocal~of~19~is~(1)/(19)}$

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