Additive Inverse Of A Rational Number :
The opposite, or additive inverse, of a number is the same distance from 0 on a number line as the original number, but on the other side of 0. Zero is its own additive inverse. In other words, the additive inverse of a rational number is the same number with opposite sign. For example additive inverse of 2/3 is -2/3.
For every rational number there is a rational number
such that:
The rational numbers satisfying the above property are called additive inverse or negative of each other. The additive inverse of
is written as
.
