Maths Class 8 Mp Board English Medium Solution
Solution:
(i) We have given, \(\frac{-4}{5} \times 1=1 \times \frac{-4}{5}=\frac{-4}{5}\)
i.e., 1 is the multiplicative identity. Thus, it is a identity property under multiplication
(ii) We have given, \(\frac{-13}{17} \times \frac{-2}{7}=\frac{-2}{7} \times \frac{-13}{17}\), which shows the commutativity.
Thus, it is a commutative property under multiplication.
(iii) We have given \(\frac{-19}{29} \times \frac{29}{-19}=1\), which shows that \(\frac{29}{-19}\) is a multiplicative inverse of \(\left(\frac{-19}{29}\right)\)
Thus, it is a inverse property under multiplication.

Mp Board Solution Class 8 Maths Question 8.
Is \(\frac{8}{9}\) the multiplicative inverse of \(-1 \frac{1}{8}\) ? Why or why not?
Solution:
We have given a fraction \(\frac{8}{9}\) and \(-1 \frac{1}{8}=\frac{-9}{8}\)
No, \(\frac{-9}{8}\) is not a multiplicative inverse of \(\frac{8}{9}\) because \(\frac{8}{9} \times\left(\frac{-9}{8}\right)=-1 \neq 1\)
