Question

what is the multiplicative of -2 3/4

Answer 1

the w0t?

Answer 2

did you mean the "multiplicative inverse"?

Answer 3

Yes

Answer 4

well... can you make that mixed rational, to just an unmixed rational? :)

Answer 5

what's -2 3/4 in just a fractional form?

Answer 6

Can u just tell me the answer

Answer 7

well, the kills the idea behind the exercise

otherwise you'd have been handed out the answer sheets too, if all that's required is to transcribe them

Answer 8

Can show me examples how to do it

Answer 9

ok... lemme change the mixed fraction, to so-called improper fraction
\(\bf -2\cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{-2\times 4+3}{4}\implies \cfrac{-5}{4}\\ \quad \\
\textit{multiplicative inverse of that is}\qquad \cfrac{4}{-5}\qquad why?\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{-5}{4}\times \cfrac{4}{-5}=1
\)

is really just the same fraction upside-down

Answer 10

hmmm.... hold one... one sec. . there... I have a mistake

Answer 11

the negative is for the whole fraction... so.. one sec

Answer 12

\(\bf -2\cfrac{3}{4}\implies -\cfrac{2\times 4+3}{4}\implies \cfrac{-11}{4}\\ \quad \\
\textit{multiplicative inverse of that is}\qquad \cfrac{4}{-11}\qquad why?\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{-11}{4}\times \cfrac{4}{-11}=1\)
