Answer:

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplicative inverse means we want to end up with 1

-3/5 * what =1

Multiply by 5 to clear the fraction

-3/5 * what *5 = 1*5

-3 * what = 5

Divide by -3 to isolate what

-3*what /-3 = 5/-3

what = -5/3

The multiplicative inverse is -5/3
