You flip the fraction, meaning you swap the numerator and the denominator.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping its numerator (the top number) and denominator (the bottom number). The reciprocal of the fraction \(\frac{6}{13}\) is \(\frac{13}{6}\). Multiplying a fraction by its reciprocal results in a product of \(1\). For example, \(\frac{6}{13} \times \frac{13}{6} = 1\).
