Find the multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) of each of the following rational numbers:
(i) 9
(ii) -7
(iii) ![]()
(iv) ![]()
(v) ![]()
(vi) ![]()
(vii) ![]()
(viii) ![]()
(ix) -1
(x) ![]()
(xi)1
(i) Reciprocal of 9 is ![]()
(ii) Reciprocal of –7 is ![]()
(iii) Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(iv) Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(v) Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(vi)
*
= ![]()
Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(vii)
*
= ![]()
Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(viii) -2 *
= ![]()
Reciprocal of
is ![]()
(ix) Reciprocal of -1 is -1
(x) Reciprocal of
is not defined as in the form of
, q = 0, so it is not a rational number
(xi) Reciprocal of 1 is 1
