Hello!

______

In order to find the reciprocal of a number, we should flop it over; if you have the slightest doubt regarding the above sentence, you can consult the following formula:-


\sf{T}\bf{h}\sf{e}~\bf{r}\sf{e}\bf{c}\sf{i}\bf{p}\sf{r}{\bf{o}\sf{c}\bf{a}{\sf{l}~\mathrm{of~a~equals~\displaystyle\frac{1}{{a}}}}

According to the formula, the reciprocal of 1/20 is equal to:-


\sf{\displaystyle(20)/(1)} ~or~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 :)
