Answer:
The multiplicative inverse of a number is a number, when multiplied by the original number, gives the product as 1
The easiest way to find the multiplicative inverse of a number is to get the reciprocal of the number, and that is also the multiplicative inverse of the number
1. As mentioned above, the product of a number and its multiplicative inverse is 1
2.
a) The multiplicative inverse of 5/3 is also the reciprocal of the same number
Multiplicative inverse: 3/5
b) The multiplicative inverse of -1/5 is also the reciprocal of the same number
Multiplicative inverse: -5/1
c) The multiplicative inverse of -3 can also be written as the reciprocal of the same number
Multiplicative inverse: -1/3
