The rational number without a reciprocal is 0.
Reason: &0=frac01 &text begin aligned 0=frac10 reciprocal, undefined text endaligned
(ii) The rational numbers 1 and -1 are inverses of one another.
&1=frac111 &text &starting aligned Text that is the inverse of 1=frac111=1. Likewise, the endaligned reciprocal of -1=-1.
(iii) Its inverse is a rational number equal to zero.
The reason is that 0 less than 0 equals -0=0.
