The additive inverse of 6 is -6, 6 + (-6) = 6 - 6 = 0.

The multiplicative inverse of 6 is 1/6, 6 x 1/6 = (6 x 1)/6 = 6/6 = 1

What are the additive and multiplicative inverses of 5.42?

The additive inverse of a number a is the number -a because a + (-a) = 0. For 5.42, the additive inverse is -5.42 because 5.42 + (-5.42) = 0. The multiplicative inverse of a number a is the number 1/a because a(1/a) = 1. For 5.42, the multiplicative inverse is 1/5.42 = 0.1845.

What is the difference between multiplicative inverse and additive inverse?

The multiplicative inverse of a non-zero element, x, in a set, is an element, y, from the set such that x*y = y*x equals the multiplicative identity. The latter is usually denoted by 1 or I and the inverse of x is usually denoted by x-1 or 1/x. y need not be different from x. For example, the multiplicative inverse of 1 is 1, that of -1 is -1.The additive inverse of an element, p, in a set, is an element, q, from the set such that p+q = q+p equals the additive identity. The latter is usually denoted by 0 and the additive inverse of p is denoted by -p.

Multiplicative inverse of -3?

The multiplicative inverse of -3 is -(1/3) or negative one-third. The multiplicative inverse of a number is the number that you multiply it by to get a result of 1 (the multiplicative identity). So, since -3 times -(1/3) is 1, -(1/3) is the multiplicative inverse of -3. Similarly, +3 is the ADDITIVE inverse of -3. The additive inverse of a number is the number you add to it to get a result of 0 (the additive identity). So, since -3 + (+3) = 0, +3 is the additive inverse of -3. The original answer given here was that the multiplicative inverse of -3 is +3, which is flat incorrect.
