Question

Write the additive inverse of each of the following

$-\frac{2}{9}$

Answer 1

Additive inverse:

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

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

Therefore,

The additive inverse of $-\frac{2}{9}$ will be $\frac{2}{9}$because $-\frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{9}=0$.

Hence, the additive inverse of $-\frac{2}{9}$ is $\frac{2}{9}$.
