Question

multiplicative inverse of - 10 is (- 1÷10)​

Answer 1

Step by step explanation: So to find the multiplicative inverse, first we must know what is multiplicative identity

Multiplicative identity of a number is always 1.

Solution: -10 = -10/1

So, whenever we multiply a number with it’s multiplicative inverse you must get multiplicative identity i.e 1

So -10/1*-1/10 = 1

Hence, proved it’s right

Answer 2

Answer :

The multiplicative inverse of - 10 is (- 1÷10)

We know that,

• Multiplicative inverse is when a number multiplied by x it yields 1.

Taking this,

= -10 × x = 1

= x = $\dfrac {-1}{10}$

So, yes the given statement is true .
