Solution

Compute the number:
Additive identity:- A number is added to any number which gives the result as the number itself then that number is called additive identity.
That means $0$ is the additive identity as any number added to $0$ then the sum is equal to the number.
By considering the above property $- 53 + 0 = - 53$ .
Hence the required statement is $- 53 + 0 = - 53$ .
