Question

Eight times the reciprocal of a number equals 4 times the reciprocal of 9 .

Answer 1

2/9

Explanation:

Call the unknown number n

Therefore, we can express your question in the following manner

8 * n = 4 * 9

n = 36/8

But we know that n is a reciprocal of a number, so we need to flip the numerator and denomiator in n

Answer: 8/36 = 2/9
