http://www.wisfaq.nl/show3archive.asp?id=64121&j=2011
Voor de multiplicatieve inverse m van een getal n geldt dat:
n•m=1
Voorbeeld: De multiplicatieve inverse van 2 is 1/2 want 2•1/2=1

Definitie
Een geheel getal a is de multiplicatieve inverse van b mod m als a b 1
mod m. We noteren de multiplicatieve inverse modulo m van a met a^-1 mod m. De multiplicatieve inverse hoeft niet altijd te bestaan.
