hope it will be helpful for you

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If b is the multiplicative inverse of a, then,

a × b = 1

$\frac{8}{9} \times \frac{ - 11}{8} = \frac{ - 11}{9} \: is \: not \: equal \: to \:1$

Multiplicative inverse of -11/8 = -8/11

And [-11/8] × [-8/11] = 1

Hence, 8/9 is not the multiplicative inverse of -11/8
