Inclusive jet cross sections in Z/{gamma}* events, with Z/{gamma}* decaying into an electron-positron pair, are measured as a function of jet transverse momentum and jet multiplicity in pp collisions at {radical}(s)=1.96 TeV with the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab in run II, based on an integrated luminosity of 1.7 fb{sup -1}. The measurements cover the rapidity region |y{sup jet}|<2.1 and the transverse momentum range p{sub T}{sup jet}>30 GeV/c. Next-to-leading order perturbative QCD predictions are in good agreement with the measured cross sections.
