Given $2 \dfrac { 1 } { 2 } \mathrm {  } \text { of } 10 \mathrm { cm }$

$2\cfrac { 1 }{ 4 } \times \cfrac { 5 }{ 12 } +\cfrac { 1 }{ 2 } $

$999\dfrac { 995 }{ 999 } \times 999=\quad 999\times 995\=\dfrac { 999\times 999+995 }{ 999 } \times 999\=998996$

Given expression $\displaystyle \frac{1}{9}\times\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{1}{3}\times56052=346$

$\displaystyle \left ( 1-\frac{1}{2} \right )\left ( 1-\frac{1}{3} \right )\left ( 1-\frac{1}{4} \right )......\left ( 1-\frac{1}{n} \right )=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{2}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}\times ......\times \frac{n-2}{n-1}\times \frac{n-1}{n}=\frac{1}{n}$

Let the money with the man at first be Rs 1
$\displaystyle \therefore $ Money spent=$\displaystyle \frac{5}{6}of Rs1=Rs\frac{5}{6}$
Remaining money=$\displaystyle =1-\frac{5}{6}=Rs\frac{1}{6}$
Money earned$\displaystyle =\frac{1}{2}=Rs\frac{1}{6}=Rs \frac{1}{12}$
$\displaystyle \therefore $ Total money with him now=Rs$\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}+Rs.\frac{1}{12}=Rs.\frac{3}{12}=Rs.\frac{1}{4}$
$\displaystyle \therefore \frac{1}{4}th$ part of the money is with him now

June 2008 has 30 days.
$30\times 3\dfrac {1}{4}=30\times \dfrac {13}{4}=97\dfrac {1}{2} litres$.

$=\dfrac {5}{6}\times \dfrac {2}{3}=\dfrac {10}{18}=\dfrac {5}{9}$

If the product of two numbers is 1, then each number is known as multiplicative inverse or the reciprocal of one another. ... Hence, the product of a fractional number and its multiplicative inverse is 1

Veronica can type words in $1$ minute $=28$.

Let the number of matches lost = x
Number of matches won = x + 4
Total matches played = x + x +4
                                   = 2x + 4
We have,
x + 4 = $\displaystyle\frac{3}{5}\left ( 2x + 4 \right )$
5x + 20 = 6x + 12
x = 8
$\displaystyle\therefore $ total matches played = 2x + 4
$\displaystyle= 2\left ( 8 \right )+ 4= 20$

The equivalent to the given fraction 10/11 having the numerator 40 should have a denominator divisible by 11. The only option with a denominator divisible by 11 is option C. 44 is divisible by 11 and 40 is divisible by 10. So,

Only options A and C have denominators 18 in their options.

Zero can't have a reciprocal because
$1/0$ is not defined.
The rest statements are
$(-a)\times (-b)=ab$
Reciprocal of $a$ is $1/a$
$a\times b=ab$
where $a$ and $b$ are positive.

To find $\left(-\dfrac{7}{2}\right)^{-1}$

(1) Every point on the line doesn't represent a ration number, it represents the real number,  which includes both rational and irrational numbers.

Product of $x$ and reciprocal of $a$ $=$ $x\times \dfrac{1}{a}= \dfrac{x}{a}$
Product of $y$ and reciprocal of $b$ $=$ $y\times \dfrac{1}{b}= \dfrac{y}{b}$
Therefore, the algebraic expression is $\dfrac{y}{b}-\dfrac{x}{a}$.

Put x = 3 and y = 3 of LHS, we get
5$\dfrac{1}{3}$ $\times$ 3$\dfrac{3}{4}$ = $\dfrac{16}{3}$ $\times$ $\dfrac{15}{4}$ = 4 $\times$ 5 = 20

Let the original fraction be $\dfrac{x}{y}$.

We know that the reciprocal of any number $n$ is $\dfrac {1}{n}$. When we multiply a number by its reciprocal, we get $1$ as the answer. For example: $n\times \dfrac { 1 }{ n } =1$ 

The reciprocal of a number is $1$ divided by that number. For example, the reciprocal of $a$ is $\dfrac {1}{a}$

We first rewrite the given mixed fraction $2\dfrac { 1 }{ 3 }$ as $\dfrac {7}{3}$. 

The reciprocal of a number is $1$ divided by that number. For example, the reciprocal of $a$ is $\dfrac {1}{a}$

It is given that Ravi had $\dfrac {5}{6}$ of a cake and from that piece of cake he ate $\dfrac {2}{3}$rd of it which means that:

If the product of two numbers is $1$, then each number is known as multiplicative inverse or the reciprocal of one another. To find the multiplicative inverse of a proper or improper fraction, interchange the numerator and denominator. For example, the multiplicative inverse of the fraction $\dfrac {5}{18}$ is $\dfrac {18}{5}$.

the reciprocal of 5/11 is 11/5..

Product of the fraction is $\dfrac{12}{24}$ and $\dfrac{36}{72}$ is 

The product of $\dfrac{11}{12} \times \dfrac{16}{4} \times \dfrac{9}{16} $ is

$\dfrac{1}{9}$ of $45=5$ because $45$ is divided by $9$ in $5$ times.

Let's first convert the mixed fraction into simple fraction $\dfrac{4}{3},$ $\dfrac{13}{4},$ $\dfrac{7}{8}$ .

Reciprocal of $y-1$ is $\dfrac{1}{y-1} = y+1$, so we get ${y}^{2}-1=1$
Which implies $y = \pm \sqrt2$
So, the correct option is $E$.
