<span>Look at the definition of multiplicative inverse. If two numbers are multiplicative inverses of each other, then by definition, their product will be equal to 1. And 1 is a positive number. If both numbers being multiplied are positive, then the result is positive. And of both numbers being multiplied are negative, then the result is still positive. But if one number is positive and the other is negative, then the result is negative. So if you want a positive result, then both numbers you're multiplying have to have the same sign. And since we want a result of 1 for multiplicative inverses and since 1 is positive, then the numbers being multiplied have to have the same sign.</span>

Answer:
2 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
change -1 3/5 to an improper fraction
-1 3/5 = -(5*1+3)/5 = -8/5
-1 3/5 ÷ -2/3 =
-8/5 ÷-2/3
copy dot flip
-8/5 * -3/2
24/10
divide top and bottom by 2
12/5
change back to a mixed number
5 goes into 12 2 times (5*2=10) with 2 left over
2 2/5
Answer:
the first one is -9/40. the second one is 109/20. the third one is -8/35.
Step-by-step explanation:
here is the work for the first one 3/8-.6 and convert into a simplified fraction and came up with -9/40. here is the work for the second one 4 4/3+0.7 and then convert into a simplified fraction and came up with 109/20. here is the work for the third one 4/7-0.8 and then convert into a simplified fraction and came up with -8/35.
9.11 kilometers
18.5 - 0.28 = 18.22
18.22 / 2 = 9.11
