let required number be x, 

(-6)^-1 × x = 9^-1

-x/6 = 1/9 

-x = 6/9 

x = -2/3
 


-2/3 is the required number 



i  hope this will help you

Answer:

\frac{-2}{3} \text{ should be multiplied so that product becomes }9^{-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Given the number }(-6)^{-1}

\text}{we have to find the number by which the given number should be multiplied so that product becomes }9^{-1}

Let the number be x

(-6)^{-1}\times x=9^{-1}

-\frac{1}{6}\times x =\frac{1}{9}

\text{Multiply by (-6) both sides, we get }

x=\frac{1}{9}\times (-6)=\frac{-2}{3}

\text{Hence, }\frac{-2}{3} \text{ should be multiplied so that product becomes }9^{-1}
