Answer 1

Answer:

10/12 or 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

12/10 = 1.2, and the multiplicative inverse of 12/10 is 10/12

Answer 2

Answer:  5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the number 1.2 and asked to find its multiplicative inverse, in fraction form, without decimals.

Let's start by converting 1.2 itself to a fraction.

1.2 = 12/10, which can be reduced to 6/5.

The multiplicative inverse for any fraction a/b = b/a, as long as neither a nor b equals zero.

So, the multiplicative inverse of 6/5 is just 5/6
