Answer: 6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding the reciprocal, we essentially just "flip" or take the inverse of the number we are given. For example, the reciprocal of 1/2 would be 2/1 or 2. The given number multiplied by the reciprocal should always equal 1. If it does, then we know we are correct.
In this case, we are finding the reciprocal of 5/6, so we "flip" the numerator and the denominator to get 6/5.
To check our work, we need to multiply our original number and its reciprocal.
5/6 x 6/5 = 30/30 = 1
Now, we know we are correct, that the reciprocal of 5/6 is 6/5.
Answer:
less than.
Step-by-step explanation:
.............
# of apples
3/8(a)=# of oranges
p=# of pears
3/4(p)=# of oranges
(3/8)a=(3/4)p
(3/8)/(3/4)=p/a
(3/8)(6/8)=p/a
3/6=p/a
1/2=p/a
the ratios of pears to apples is 1 to 2
for every 1 pear there are 2 apples
if there are 4 pears there are 8 apples
there are 8 apples
(3/8)(8)=3 oranges
there are 4 pears
(3/4)(4)=3 oranges again
8 apples, 3 oranges, 4 pears
15 pieces of fruit and 3 are oranges
ratio is 3/15=1/5
