Find f(f(1/x))

Find \( f(f(1/x)) \)

Question:

If

\[ f(x)=1-\frac1x, \]

then write the value of

\[ f\left(f\left(\frac1x\right)\right). \]

Solution:

First,

\[ f\left(\frac1x\right) = 1-\frac{1}{1/x} \]

\[ =1-x \]

Now,

\[ f(f(1/x)) = f(1-x) \]

\[ =1-\frac1{1-x} \]

\[ =\frac{1-x-1}{1-x} \]

\[ =\frac{x}{x-1} \]

Therefore,

\[ \boxed{f(f(1/x))=\frac{x}{x-1}} \]
