Answer:

What is the difference between additive inverse and multiplicative inverse?

In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to a, yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite (number), sign change, and negation. For a real number, it reverses its sign: the opposite to a positive number is negative, and the opposite to a negative number is positive.

Additive inverse is closely related to subtraction, which can be viewed as an addition of the opposite:

a − b  =  a + (−b).

Conversely, additive inverse can be thought of as subtraction from zero:

−a  =  0 − a.

In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/x or x−1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. Themultiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. For themultiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number
