प्रश्न
By what number should 5−1 be multiplied so that the product may be equal to (−7)−1?
उत्तर
Expressing in fraction form, we get:
5−1 = 1/5 (using the property a−1 = 1/a)
and
(−7)−1 = −1/7 (using the property a−1 = 1/a).
We have to find a number x such that
`1/5x=(-1)/7`
Multiplying both sides by 5, we get: `x=-5/7`
Hence, 5−1 should be multiplied by −5/7 to obtain (−7)−1.
