    2/3 A = 16

    The multiplicative inverse is also known as the reciprocal. To solve for the value of A, multiplicative inverse is required.

    The multiplicative inverse of 2/3 is 3/2. When you divide a number by a fraction, you first get the reciprocal of the fraction. Then, you multiply the number by the reciprocal of the fraction.

    2/3 A = 16

    A = 16 / 2/3

    A = 16 * 3/2

    A = 48 / 2

    A = 24

    To check:

    2/3 A = 16

    2/3 (24) = 16

    48 / 3 = 16

    16 = 16
