Hi :)
The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5.
Every number has a reciprocal except 0.
For example
5/1 is just 5 but the reciprocal of that would be 1/5.
Essentially flipping the fraction.
Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Reciprocal means the multiplicative inverse of a number. It means the numerator and the denominator which their places.
Since 5 does not have a denominator, we can keep the denominator as 1. The fraction will be [tex]\frac{5}{1}[/tex]. Now when we switch the numerator and denominator, we will get [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex].
