What is the reciprocal of each number?
Column A: Column B:
1. 2/9 A. -9/2
2. -9/2 B. -2/9
3. 9/2 C. 2/9
4. -2/9 D. 9/2
E. 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
tht was too much...
OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):
Okay so the reciprocal of 2/9 is -9/2. For -9/2, it is 2/9. Are you starting to get what I am doing?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think so. a negative's reciprocal is the numerator and denominator but backwards, also its a positive.
OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):
Yep! So try the last 2 :)
