Inverse Operations: Divison undoes multiplication. Addition undoes subtraction. Subtraction undoes addition. Multiplication undoes division.
Inverse operations, or opposite operations, undo one another. Subtraction undoes addition (and vice versa), and division undoes multiplication (and vice versa).
Operations that undo each other include: addition and subtraction multiplication and division powers and roots
how does multiplication and division undo each other
If an operation calls for multiplication we multiply; if it calls for any other operation, we perform the other operation!
Inverse Operations: Divison undoes multiplication. Addition undoes subtraction. Subtraction undoes addition. Multiplication undoes division.
An inverse operation undoes it's composite operation. For example, Addition and Subtraction are inverses of each other, as are Multiplication and Division, as are Exponentiation and Logarithms, as are Sine and ArcSine, Cosine and ArcCosine, Tangent and ArcTangent, Secant and ArcSecant, Cosecant and ArcCosecant, and Cotangent and ArcCotangent
Operations that undo each other are called inverse operations. Division is the inverse of multiplication as it undoes the multiplication. eg 3 × 7 = 21; 21 ÷ 7 = 3. Note that there is NO inverse for multiplying by 0.
Division is the inverse operation to multiplication. Division by a number (other than zero) is the same as multiplication by its reciprocal.
Inverse operations, or opposite operations, undo one another. Subtraction undoes addition (and vice versa), and division undoes multiplication (and vice versa).
EQUATION
The inverse operation of addition is subtraction. The inverse multiplication by a number other than 0 is division. Multiplication by 0 does not have an inverse operation.

Yes they are
how does multiplication and division undo each other
Of the five common operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and power, both addition and multiplication are commutative, as well as associative. The other operations are neither.
Depending on what you wish to do, it is multiplication or division. But not addition or subtraction, nor other arithmetical operations.
