Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    What is the inverse operation for multiplication?

    • A.

      Addition

    • B.

      Subtraction

    • C.

      Division

    Correct Answer
    C. Division
    Explanation
    The inverse operation for multiplication is division. When we multiply a number by another number and then divide the result by the same number, we get back to the original number. Division undoes the effect of multiplication, just like subtraction undoes addition and vice versa.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    What is the inverse operation for an addition?

    • A.

      Subtraction

    • B.

      Multiplication

    • C.

      Division

    Correct Answer
    A. Subtraction
    Explanation
    The inverse operation for addition is subtraction. This is because addition and subtraction are opposite operations. When we add a number to another number, we can undo the addition by subtracting the same number from the sum. For example, if we have 5 + 3 = 8, we can find the original numbers by subtracting 3 from 8, which gives us 8 - 3 = 5.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What is the inverse operation for division?

    • A.

      Addition

    • B.

      Subtraction

    • C.

      Multiplication

    Correct Answer
    C. Multiplication
    Explanation
    The inverse operation for division is multiplication. When we divide a number by another number, we are essentially finding how many times the divisor can fit into the dividend. To undo this operation and get back to the original number, we need to multiply the quotient by the divisor. Multiplication undoes division, making it the correct answer.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    What is the inverse operation for subtraction?

    • A.

      Addition

    • B.

      Multiplication

    • C.

      Division

    Correct Answer
    A. Addition
    Explanation
    The inverse operation for subtraction is addition. When we subtract a number from another number, we can undo that operation by adding the same number back. This is because addition and subtraction are opposite operations.

      H = -17

    • D.

      H = -51

    Correct Answer
    B. H = 51
    Explanation
    The given equation is h - 34 = 17. To solve for h, we need to isolate h on one side of the equation. Adding 34 to both sides of the equation, we get h = 51. Therefore, the correct answer is h = 51.

      R = 5

    • D.

      R = 15

    Correct Answer
    B. R = 50
    Explanation
    The given equation r/5 = 10 can be solved by multiplying both sides of the equation by 5, which gives us r = 50. This means that when r is divided by 5, the result is 10. Therefore, the correct answer is r = 50.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Y / 12 = 11

    • A.

      Y = -132
