State whether the following statement is TRUE or FALSE:
\frac{8}{9} the multiplication inverse of -1\ \frac{1}{8}
The product with multiplicative inverse should be 1.
\frac{8}{9}\times\left(-1\frac{1}{8}\right)=\frac{8}{9}\times\left(-\frac{9}{8}\right)=-1\ne1\
Here, the product is not 1, hence the given statement is FALSE.
