Question

the multiplicative in verse of -2/5 is 2/5 true or false​

Answer 1

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicative inverse of a number is its reciprocal, i.e., the multiplicative inverse of a/b is b/a.

Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of (-2)/5 is 5/(-2) or (-5)/2.

On the other hand, additive inverse of (-2)/5 is 2/5.

The additive inverse of a number is its opposite, i.e, the additive inverse of a/b is (-a)/b.

Therefore, the answer is FALSE.
