To find the reciprocal of a fraction, you switch the numerator and denominator.
Integers can be written as fractions:

<em>n = </em>an integer

<em>n
</em>-- =<em> </em><em>n </em>as a fraction
1

1
-- = the reciprocal of <em>n</em>
<em>n
</em>
Therefore, the number you are looking for is 5, because 5 + 1/5 <--- which is the reciprocal of 5,

= 5 1/5

athletes are running a race. A gold medal is to be given to the winner, a silver medal is to be given to the second-place finish

Agata [3.3K]

Using the permutation formula, there are 157,410 ways for the medals to be distributed.

<h3>What is the permutation formula?</h3>

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by:

$P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

In this problem, 3 athletes are chosen from a set of 55, hence the number of ways is given by:

P(55,3) = 55!/52! = 157,410

157,410 ways for the medals to be distributed.
