The opposite reciprocal number is the same as finding the negative reciprocal of a number.

Following the image, we'd replace `a` with `5` and `b` with `9`.

Our first step is to flip `a/b`, or `5/9`. We now have `b/a -> 9/5`.

Our second step is to make our number negative. `b/a -> -b/a`, or `9/5 -> -9/5`.
