Question

Select the expression that represents the additive inverse of 4/5

A. 5/4
B. 4/5
C. -4/5
D. -5/4

Answer 1

C. -4/5

Explanation:

we know that

The additive inverse is what you add to a number to get zero. The negative of a number.

Example:

The additive inverse of −a is +a, because −a + a = 0

In this problem we have

4/5

therefore

The additive inverse is -4/5

because

4/5+(-4/5)=0
