Determine the Multiplicative Inverse of a Number

TEKS Math: 6.3.A

(A) Recognize that dividing by a rational number and multiplying by its reciprocal result in equivalent values

AU Math: ACMNA123

(Y6) Select and apply efficient mental and written strategies and appropriate digital technologies to solve problems involving all four operations with whole numbers (ACMNA123)

ACMNA183

(Y8) Carry out the four operations with rational numbers and integers, using efficient mental and written strategies and appropriate digital technologies (ACMNA183)

CCSS Math: 7.NS.2.A

7.NS.2.A Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of operations, particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (-1)(-1) = 1 and the rules for multiplying signed numbers. Interpret products of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.

This number system lesson covers how to determine the multiplicative inverse of a number. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the given number, then determine its multiplicative inverse by switching the numerator and denominator. Finally, they interpret what it means, showing that a given number times it’s multiplicative inverse equals one.
