Find the multiplicative inverse of 2.25
You will first need to convert the decimal number 2.25 to an improper fraction.
2.25 = 2 1/4 = 9/4
The multiplicative inverse of 9%2F4 is 4%2F9, so...
The multiplicative inverse of 2.25+=+4%2F9
However, if you need your answer to be in decimal form, then...
4%2F9+=+0.444...
The multiplicative inverse of 2.25+=+0.444...
