A reciprocal of a number is the same number written under 1. aka, 1 divided by that number, which simply is flipping the numerator and denominator of a number.

So the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1 = 5.

So 4 ÷ 1/5 = 4 × 5.

So your answer is 5.

What is the middle integer?

Elanso [62]

Answer:

-56

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's create an equation to figure out what the middle integer really is.

Creating an equation:

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = -168 (This is true because we must account for the <em>consecutive integers </em>part.)

Simplifying:

3n + 3 = -168

Subtracting:

3n = -171

Dividing:

n = -57

Now, we plug-and-chug:

-57, -56, -54 (this is because we accounted for adding <em>positive </em>one.)

Thus, the middle integer is $\boxed{-56}$ .

Check:

We can see if we are correct by adding up -57, -56, -54.

(-57) + (-56) + (-54) = -168

So we are correct!

Hope this helps!
