Question
State whether each sentence is true or false. If false, replace the underlined term to make a true sentence.
Since the product of any number and 1 is equal to the number, 1 is called the multiplicative inverse.
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
The statement is false, and the correct statement will be “Since the product of any number and 1 is equal to the number, 1 is called the multiplicative identity.”
1Step 1. Multiplicative inverse and Multiplicative identity.
The multiplicative inverse for a number is the one divided by that number.
The multiplicative identity is 1.
2Step 2. Multiplicative identity.
The product of any number and 1 is equal to the number, 1 is called the multiplicative identity.
3Step 3. Determine whether the given statement is true or false.
Thus, the given statement is false.
The true statement is “Since the product of any number and 1 is equal to the number, 1 is called the multiplicative identity.”
