12. Property of Multiplication Two numbers whose product is 1 are multiplicative inverse, or reciprocals, of each other. For example, 4 and ¼ are multiplicative inverses because 4 * ¼ = 1.

13. Divide Fractions Dividing by 4 is the same as multiplying by ¼, its multiplicative inverse. This is true for any rational number. 110 ÷ 4 = 27 ½ 110 * ¼ = 27 ½ Same answer Multiplicative inverses

14. Teaching Tip Improper fractions are written as mixed numbers. However, in algebra, improper fractions are not changed to mixed numbers.

15. Teaching Tip Dividing by a whole number: When dividing by a whole number, always rename it as an improper fraction. Then multiply by its reciprocal. 2 5 ÷5= 2 5 5 1 ÷
