​

Answer 1

Given :

Is 0.3 the multiplication inverse of 3 1/3

To find :

why or why not ?

Solution:

Multiplicative inverse : A multiplicative inverse is reciprocal of a number

Eg : Multiplicative inverse of x is\frac{1]{x}

We are supposed to find the multiplication inverse of 3 \frac{1}{3}331

So, Number = 3 1/3=10/3 331=310

So, Multiplicative inverse of\frac{10}{3}310 = \frac{3}{10}103

So, Multiplicative inverse of \frac{10}{3}310 = 0.3

Hence  0.3 the multiplication inverse of 3 \frac{1}{3}331
