The reciprocal is 125125

Explanation:

Before we find the reciprocal of the value given, let's simplify it first, because there is a negative index.

5^-3 = 1/5^3" "larr53=153 law of indices: x^-m = 1/x^mxm=1xm

The reciprocal of a number is also called its multiplicative inverse.
(Turn it upside down..)

Reciprocal of 22 is 1/2" and "12 and Reciprocal of 3/434 is 4/343

Reciprocal of -1/414 is -4" and "4 and Reciprocal of a/bab is b/aba

The product of a number and its reciprocal is always 11

Here we have 1/5^3 = 1/125153=1125

The reciprocal is 125/1 = 1251251=125
