Find the multiplicative inverse of (–7)–2 ÷ (90)–1.

उत्तर
As we know that a is called multiplicative inverse of b, If a × b = 1.
Given:
(–7)–2 ÷ (90)–1
Simplify the above expression as follows:
`(-7)^-2 ÷ (90)^-1 = 1/(7)^2 ÷ 1/(90)^1`
= `1/49 ÷ 1/90`
= `1/49 xx 90/1`
= `90/49`
Let `b = 90/49`
So, `a xx 90/49 = 1`
`a = 49/90`
Hence, the multiplicative inverse is `49/90`.

An insect is on the 0 point of a number line, hopping towards 1. She covers half the distance from her current location to 1 with each hop. So, she will be at `1/2` after one hop, `3/4` after two hops, and so on.

- Make a table showing the insect’s location for the first 10 hops.
- Where will the insect be after n hops?
- Will the insect ever get to 1? Explain.
