Answer :

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

The reciprocal of a fraction is its flipped form.

[tex]\boxed{\text{reciprocal of }\dfrac{A}{B} \implies \dfrac{B}{A}}[/tex]

So, the reciprocals of the given fractions are:

  • [tex]4[/tex]
  • [tex]13[/tex]
  • [tex]-23[/tex]

Subtracting these sequentially, we get:

[tex]4-13-(-23)[/tex]

[tex]= 4 - 13 + 23[/tex]

[tex]= -9 + 23[/tex]

[tex]= 14[/tex]
