Question

If 3 · N = 1, then N is the _____.


additive inverse

additive identity

multiplicative inverse

multiplicative identity

Answer 1

ANSWER

Multiplicative Inverse

EXPLANATION

If we multiply any number by its multiplicative inverse, the result is 1.

So for the given equation

$3\times N=1$

$N$ is the multiplicative inverse of $3$. That is why the result is $1$

Answer 2

Answer:

C. Multiplicative inverse.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $3\cdot N=1$. We are asked to find the name of N.

We can see that N is multiplied by 3 and the result is 1.

We know that a number is known as multiplicative inverse of another number, when the product of both numbers equal to 1.

Since product of 3 and N is 1, therefore, N is multiplicative inverse for our given equation.
