Answer: Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.

Explanation:

Since we know that irrational numbers are those real number which cannot be written in
(p)/(q) form.

Rational numbers are those real numbers which can be written in
(p)/(q) form.

Inverse property of multiplication is that property in which we write a number in reciprocal form .

Whole numbers starts from 0 and Natural numbers start from 1 and Integers contain both positive and negative numbers.

Hence,
(1)/(5) belongs to rational numbers sets and inverse property of multiplication sets.

Therefore, Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.
