1. Step-by-step explanation:

   Question:

   Find the multiplicative inverse of -1.

   What is multiplicative inverse?

   When we inverse the number like if the number is 2 so it becomes 1/2 and if the number is 1/6 then the answer is 6.

   More Examples:

   Question 1:

   ⟹ –6/8

   [tex]⟹ \frac{8}{ – 6} [/tex]

   Question 2 :

   ⟹ 12/14

   [tex]⟹ \frac{14}{12} [/tex]

   Now let’s come to the Question:

   Solution:

   –

   ⟹ –1

   [tex]⟹ \frac{1}{ – 1} \: \: ans..[/tex]

   Points

   • When we are doing multiplicative inverse so the sign does not change.
   • Means if it is -4/7 so, it will become 7/-4 only .
   • Not -7/4.
   • The sign remains with the number only
   • Basically we do the reciprocal of the number.
