Question

to get additive inverse of an integer it should be multiplied by

Answer 1

Answer:

should be multiplied with  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To get additive inverse of an integer we have to multiply by the integer by -1 so as to change the symbol of the integer which when added to the original integer will give the sum as 0, which is the Additive inverse of integers.

eg., additive inverse of -2 = -1 * -2 = +2  such that -2 + (+2) = 0

and additive inverse of +2 = -1 - +2 = -2 such that +2 + (-2) = 0
