An inventory analyst uses the equation $\frac{3}{4}p = 18$ to determine total stock capacity. When solving for $p$, the analyst multiplies $\frac{3}{4}$ by its reciprocal $\frac{4}{3}$ to get a coefficient of $1$. Which mathematical property describes the fact that the product of a non-zero number and its reciprocal is always $1$?

A project coordinator has translated the statement 'Three-fourths of the project tasks ($p$) is $18$' into an equation and determined the solution is $p = 24$. According to the systematic process, which action must the coordinator take to verify that $24$ is the correct solution?

Solve $\frac{3}{4}p=18$: multiply both sides by _____ to isolate $p$.
