Answer:

  6/5 is the reciprocal of 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The reciprocal of a number is its multiplicative inverse. That is, the product of the number and its reciprocal is 1, the multiplicative identity element.

For a fraction, the reciprocal is the fraction with numerator and denominator interchanged. That is, the reciprocal of 5/6 is 6/5.

You can check that this is the multiplicative inverse by multiplying it by 5/6:

  5/6 × 6/5 = (5×6)/(6×5) = 30/30 = 1 . . . . the multiplicative identity element

How do you find the volume of a cylinder?? Step by step by step
Shalnov [3]

1).  Recall the formula for the volume of a cylinder:

           Volume = (pi) x (radius of the round end)² x (length or height) .

2).  Gather together the number you'll use for pi, the radius of the
cylinder's round end, and its length or height.  Make sure that the
radius of the round end and the length or height are in the same units.
If they're not, then convert something so that they are.

3).  Write each number into its place in the formula.

4).  Perform the indicated operations.  The final number is the
volume of your cylinder.
