f(x)+ f(1/x) =x-[x] + 1/x-[1/x]
               
               = x-[x] + 1/x =1
 
 
   in this eqn i've found that only 1 is satisfying
 
 
           plz tell me if i'm crt!!!!!!!!!!!

the equation here shows that you need to take 4 conditions

x< -1, -1<=x<0, 0
atx<-1
[x]=x-1
[(1/x)]=-1
x-(x-1) - {f} +1=1 where{f}=fractional part
1-{f}=0
but 0<{f}<1
hence not applicable

at -1<=x<0
[x]=-1
[(1/x)]= -ve Integer
x-(-1) + negative no-it's greatest integer=1
x+1+{f}=1
x=negative of fractional part
hence there are infinite solutions

            f(x)+ f(1/x) = 1
=> x-[x] + 1/x-[1/x] = 1
=>  x + 1/x = 1+ [x] + [1/x]
 
now RHS has to be an integer....that means LHS is also an integer.....which is possible only if x =1

what I want to say is that when x lies between -1and 0, the value of x comes out to be -{f}.
this means that x takes all real values between -1 to 0 which is a fractional part.eg: it will take values like,-0.01 ,-0.002,-0.45 etc hence there are infinite solutions.
