Question:

Write the additive inverse of each of the following rational numbers:

(i) $\frac{-2}{17}$

(ii) $\frac{3}{-11}$

(iii) $\frac{-17}{5}$

(iv) $\frac{-11}{-25}$

 

Solution:

(i) Additive inverse is the negative of the given number.

So, additive inverse of $\frac{-2}{17}$ is $\frac{2}{17}$.

(ii) Additive inverse is the negative of the given number.

So, additive inverse of $\frac{3}{-11}$ is $\frac{3}{11}$.

(iii) Additive inverse is the negative of the given number.

So, additive inverse of $\frac{-17}{5}$ is $\frac{17}{5}$.

(iv) Additive inverse is the negative of the given number.

So, additive inverse of $\frac{-11}{-25}$ is $\frac{-11}{25}$.
