What is the multiplicative inverse

The video tutorial explains the concept of the multiplicative inverse, which states that for any nonzero real number 'a', multiplying 'a' by its reciprocal (1/a) results in 1. The tutorial uses the number 5 as an example, showing that multiplying 5 by 1/5 equals 1. It further explains that the multiplicative inverse of a fraction, such as 1/3, is its reciprocal, 3, which also results in 1 when multiplied together. The video emphasizes understanding the concept of reciprocals and fractions in finding multiplicative inverses.
