Answer:
assume an approximate value for the variable that will simplify the equation.
solve for the variable.
use the answer as the second approximate value and solve the equation again.
repeat this process until a constant value for the variable is obtained.
Multiplicative inverse is a number which when multiplied with the current number, the answer unit (that is, 1).
Now,
1.725 = 1725/1000 = 69/40
Inverting this and multiplying it with the results yields 1. That is,
69/40*40/69 = 1
Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of 1.725 is 40/69
The correct answer is B, sorry if it wasn't correct.
The operator 
is transitive, which means exactly that
That's the only thing you can deduce from your statement.
