Answer:

The multiplicative inverse of 7 is 1/7

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the multiplicative inverse of a number

Mathematically, the multiplicative inverse of a number is a number which when multiplied by the number gives 1

The product of 7 and its multiplicative inverse thus gives 1

So, what we have to do here is to divide 1/7

This here above, is the value of the multiplicative inverse of 7
