Multiplicative inverse of -3?
The multiplicative inverse of -3 is -(1/3) or negative one-third. The multiplicative inverse of a number is the number that you multiply it by to get a result of 1 (the multiplicative identity). So, since -3 times -(1/3) is 1, -(1/3) is the multiplicative inverse of -3. Similarly, +3 is the ADDITIVE inverse of -3. The additive inverse of a number is the number you add to it to get a result of 0 (the additive identity). So, since -3 + (+3) = 0, +3 is the additive inverse of -3. The original answer given here was that the multiplicative inverse of -3 is +3, which is flat incorrect.

What is an example of a multiplicative inverse?
a multiplicative inverse is the same as a reciprocal so basically just flip it over:3/4 would be 4/3
What is the multiplicative inverse of 3 over 4?
It is 4 over 3.
What is the multiplicative inverse of 2 over 3?
2/3 and 3/2 are multiplicative inverses because they multiply to give you the multiplicative identity one.
What is the multiplicative inverse of negative two thirds?
-2/3 -> [mult.inverse] -> -3/2 which is -1½or -1.5 ; note that a number, when multiplied by its multiplicative inverse will have a product of 1. So if you multiply these two you get 6/6 which equals 1 [negative times negative is positive].
