The multiplicative inverse of a number is the number that, when multiplied with the original number, gives a product of 1. In the case of the number 1, the multiplicative inverse is also 1.
This is because when you multiply 1 by 1, you get:
1 × 1 = 1Thus, we can conclude that the multiplicative inverse of 1 is simply 1. This property holds true for any non-zero number, where the multiplicative inverse is found by taking 1 divided by that number. However, since 1 multiplied by itself is still 1, it stands alone as its own multiplicative inverse.
