Mathematics Knowledge
Yesterday I presented a question about reciprocals. Do you know what the reciprocal of 3 is?
In working as an ASVAB tutor, I place a strong emphasis on the instruction of fractions. Fractions are one of the 15 subtopics that I cover in Arithmetic Reasoning. Reciprocal is a math term that is involved with fractions. Finding the reciprocal of a fraction involves flipping the fraction over. If a fraction is 2/4, the reciprocal is 4/2. In this case, where the number is 3.
3 is the same as 3/1. The reciprocal of 3/1 is 1/3. Did you know how to find the reciprocal of 3?
