They are the four basic operations in math.
the inverse of addition is subtraction and the inverse of multiplication is division. Of course, multiplication is just repeated addition so division is just repeated subtraction!
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.
Addition is the inverse of Subtraction. Division is the inverse of Multiplication. and then visa-versa. :-) Addition is the inverse of Subtraction. Division is the inverse of Multiplication. and then visa-versa. :-) the Answer is subtraction
The inverse of multiplication is division. * * * * * The inverse of the operation of multiplication is division, as stated in the above answer, but another name for the multiplicative inverse is a reciprocal.
They are the four basic operations in math.
Informally, many people would call the opposites. But the correct math term is inverse operations. Addition is the inverse operation of subtraction and multiplication if the inverse operation of division.
Mathematically, an inverse is an opposite, it is something that reverses what its inverse does, for example, addition and subtraction are inverse functions, as are multiplication and division. The inverse of a fraction is obtained by exchanging numerator and denominator; the inverse of a half is two.
zero property, inverse, commutative, associative, and distributative
There are inverse properties for many things in math. Commonly, we talk about it for addition and multiplication. So for addition, take any number a, there is an additive inverse -a such that a+ (-a) =0 For example, the additive inverse of 2 is -2 since 2+ -2=0 Similiarly for multiplication, for any number a, we have some number, 1/a such that a(1/a)=1. We call 1/a the multiplicative inverse. In a more abstract sense, we look at sets of objects in math and having an inverse is one of the properties a set needs to be a group. Other things, such as functions have inverses too. In fact, the inverse property is a big topic in math.

The inverse of multiplication is division.
Properties of division are the same as the properties of multiplication with one exception. You can never divide by zero. This is because in some advanced math courses division is defined as multiplication by the Multiplicative Inverse, and by definition zero does not have a Multiplicative Inverse.
They are inverse because they are the opposites.
