Answer:
NO
Step-by-step explanation:
If we write -1 1/8 as a fraction we will get -7/8
and the multiplicative inverse of 8/9 is 9/8
Therefore, it is not possible for -1 1/8 to be the multiplicative inverse of 8/9

-1 1/8 = -(!×8+1)
= -(8+1) /8
=-9/8
w know that number × mtiplicative inverse of number = 1
therefore we need to check if , -1 1/8 ×8/9 = 1
hence ,8/9 is not the multiplicative inverse of -1 1/8 as product is not 1
