What does the term Multiplicative Inverse mean?
it means reciprocal, the number that multiplies by the original number to get a product of 1. The multiplicative inverse is always 1/x; x=5, then the multiplicative inverse is 1/5. If x=1/2 or .5, the multiplicative inverse is 1/.5, which is also 2.
Is the multiplicative inverse of a rational number an integer?
No, it is not. 3/5 is rational and its multiplicative inverse is 5/3 which is not an integer.
What is the multiplicative inverse of 11 7?
The multiplicative inverse means, what do I multiply my number by to get an answer of 1? ex: The multiplicative inverse of 5 is 1/5. 5 * (1/5) = 1 If your number is a fraction to begin with, flip it over. ex: The mult. inverse of 22/7 is 7/22 (22/7)*(7/22) = 1
How do you solve multplicative inverses to solve equations?
The multiplicative inverse, or reciprocal, of a number "x", is "1/x". For example, the multiplicative inverse of 5 is 1/5. For a fraction, just exchange numerator and denominator. For example, the multiplicative inverse of 2/5 is 5/2.
Is the multiplicative inverse of -54 ... 54?
No, the multiplicative inverse of any number is one divide by that number. Stated differently, the product (-54) x (its multiplicative inverse) should be 1. (-54) x (54) is NOT equal to 1.The correct multiplicative inverse is -1/54.No, the multiplicative inverse of any number is one divide by that number.
