A reciprocal of a number is a number which, if multiplied by the original number, the product is 1.

Let's assume the reciprocal is $x$ $x$ .

So, According to the Question,

$\times x x \times 12 = 1$ $color(white)(xxx)x xx 12 = 1$ [That's what the definition says.]

$\Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{12}$ $rArr x = 1/12$ [Divide Both sides By $12$ $12$ ].

So, We found our reciprocal.

So, To find a reciprocal, just divide $1$ $1$ by the number you need to find the reciprocal of, and you have the grand prize.

Hope this helps.
