ANSWER

-4.5

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the opposite of the number 4.5

The opposite of a number is the number that is the same distance from 0 on the number line but on the other side.

So, if the number is on the right hand side, its opposite is on the left hand side.

In simpler terms, the opposite of a number is the negative of a number.

So, the opposite of 4.5 is -4.5.
