Step-by-step explanation:

its reciprocal... hope it helps

Answer 2

Additive Inverse of $\frac{5}{7}$ is $\frac{-5}{7}$.

$\rule{300}{1}$

When a number is added to another number which gives the sum as zero is known to be the additive inverse of the number. In an easy to find the additive inverse of another number we can do the following -:

• If it is a positive number then the additive inverse would be the same number but with the negative sign.

• If it is a negative number then the additive inverse would be the same number but with the positive sign.

For example additive inverse of 1 would be (-1).

Similarly we have multiplicative inverse too. In this, when a number is multiplied to another number which gives the product as one is known to be the multiplicative inverse of the number. The multiplicative inverse of the number is also known as the reciprocal. In an easy to find the multiplicative inverse of another number we can do the following -:

• In a rational number we just flip the number to find the reciprocal or multiplicative inverse.

For example additive inverse of $\frac{9}{10}$ would be $\frac{10}{9}$.
