  18. Write the multiplicative inverse of Example 4-1a Write problem Convert mixed number to improper fraction Put the whole number in the calculator which is -2 2 7 4  + +/- Multiply by the denominator which is 7 Add numerator which is 4

  19. Write the multiplicative inverse of Write as an improper fraction. Answer: Since the multiplicative inverse of Example 4-1a

  20. Write the multiplicative inverse of Example 4-1b Answer:

  21. MOVIESOne summer day, a cinema shows a hit action movie repeatedly for hours. It takes about 150 minutes to run the movie and prepare for the next showing. How many times does the cinema show the movie that day? Example 4-6a Must have same dimensional analysis to divide Change hours to minutes 12 ½ times 60 minutes

  22. Example 4-6a 12 ½ times 60 minutes 750 minutes in 12 ½ hours Each showing is 150 minutes so now divide Answer: The cinema shows the movie 5 times that day.

  23. ZOOSA zoo has a reptile show that runs repeatedly for hours. It takes about 105 minutes to conduct the show and prepare for the next one. How many times does the zoo run the reptile show each day? Example 4-6d * Answer: 6 times
