hello!

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

Kindly consider the formula for additional details:-


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

According to the formula, the reciprocal of 20 is:-


\sf{The~reciprocal~of~20~is~(1)/(20)}

note:-

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

Answer:

1/20

Explanation:

The reciprocal just means that you flip the numerator & denominator. Any whole number always has a denominator of 1, so you just flip it to 1/20. Hope this helps!
