Answer 2

We start by writing 12 as the fraction 12/1.
We can do this because if we divide 12 by 1, we still have 12.
Next, we interchange the numerator and denominator of 12/1 to get 1/12.
We can test 1/12 to make sure it is the multiplicative inverse of 12 by multiplying 12 by 1/12 and verifying we get 1...☺

= 12 × 1/12 = (12 × 1) / 12 = 12 / 12 = 1

⚫ Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of 12 is 1/12..... ☺
