Correct option is (D) All
The multiplicative inverse of 2 is \(\frac12.\)
2 is a natural number, a whole number and also an integer.
But \(\frac12\) is neither a natural number, nor a whole number nor an integer.
Thus, the multiplicative inverse does not exist in the set of natural numbers, whole numbers and integers.
