Additive inverse.

An additive inverse of a given number is, a number when added to a given number yields zero.

Let nis a number, then additive inverse will be -n because n+(-n)=0.

Therefore,

The additive inverse of -196 will be 196because -196+196=0.

The additive inverse of -23 will be 23because -23+23=0.

Hence, the additive inverse of -196 and -23 are 196 and 23respectively.
