Question

multiplicative inverse of (-5)/8 × (-3)/7

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey there!

By multiplying these two

we get,

$\:\sf{\frac{-5}{8} x \frac{-3}{7}}$

$\:\sf{\frac{15}{56}}$

So, the multiplicative inverse of $\:\sf{\frac{15}{56}}$ is $\:\sf\red{\frac{56}{15}}$

Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the multiplicative inverse is $\frac{56}{15} .$

Step-by-step explanation:

• As per the question we have to evaluate the given data.

        Given data:- $\frac{(-5)}{8} \times\frac{(-3)}{7} .$

        To find:- Value of $\frac{(-5)}{8} \times\frac{(-3)}{7} .$

        Solution:-

• Multiplication is denoted by the symbol(x).

• Multiplication is a method to get the product by multiplying two or more values.

• There are six properties of multiplication is given below:-

1. Closure property.
2. Commutative property.
3. Associative property.
4. Distributive property.
5. Identity property.
6. Zero property.

        $\frac{(-5)}{8} \times\frac{(-3)}{7} \\=\frac{-5}{8} \times \frac{-3}{7} \\=\frac{-5 \times-3}{8 \times 7} \\=\frac{15}{56}\end{array}$

      The multiplicative inverse of $\frac{15}{56}=\frac{56}{15}.$
