Here is one example of a practical use of multiplicative inverses. If you want to convert from feet to meters, you multiply by 0.3048. If you want to convert the other way round, you either DIVIDE by the same number, or you MULTIPLY by its multiplicative inverse. The same applies to many similar conversions.
