The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to follow the instructions given in the question regarding the inequality \(3 > 5\) and taking the reciprocal of each side. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Inequality**: We start with the inequality: \[ 3 > 5 \] 2. **Take the Reciprocal of Each Side**: To find the inequality after taking the reciprocal, we take the reciprocal of both sides. The reciprocal of a number \(x\) is \(\frac{1}{x}\). Thus, we have: \[ \frac{1}{3} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{1}{5} \] 3. **Write the New Inequality**: Now we write the inequality with the reciprocals: \[ \frac{1}{3} > \frac{1}{5} \] 4. **Verify the Inequality**: To verify if the inequality holds true, we can convert the fractions to decimal form: - \(\frac{1}{3} \approx 0.33\) - \(\frac{1}{5} = 0.2\) Since \(0.33 > 0.2\), the inequality \(\frac{1}{3} > \frac{1}{5}\) is indeed correct. ### Final Answer: The inequality obtained after taking the reciprocal of each side of \(3 > 5\) is: \[ \frac{1}{3} > \frac{1}{5} \]
