Dividing by twelve is the same thing as multiplying by 1/12. Thus, multiplying a number by 12/1, or twelve, is the opposite (inverse) of dividing a number by twelve.
(-1/5)
Because multiplying is the inverse of dividing
-2 (negative two) The multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) for a number x is 1/x.
Half of 420 is 210. To find half of a number, you divide it by 2. In this case, 420 divided by 2 equals 210. This is because division is the inverse operation of multiplication, and dividing by 2 is the same as multiplying by 0.5.
Dividing by twelve is the same thing as multiplying by 1/12. Thus, multiplying a number by 12/1, or twelve, is the opposite (inverse) of dividing a number by twelve.
Since subtraction is the inverse function of addition, the additive inverse of one half is minus one half.
The inverse of multiplying is dividing, so dividing by 2.

What is the inverse reciprocal of 0.01
Dividing in half is the same as dividing by 2. 4 ÷ 2 = 2 IIII becomes II Dividing by one half is the same as multiplying by 2. 4 ÷ 1/2 = 8 IIII becomes IIIIIIII
The inverse operation of Multiplying is Dividing.
(1/2) / (1/16) = (1/2) * (16/1) division equals multiplication by the inverse and the inverse of 1/16 is 16/1.= 16/2 = 8Another way to look at it is: 16 sixteenths make one. So half of them make a half ie 8 sixteenths make a half.
The inverse would be dividing because thats the opposite of multiplying.
