It depends on what kind of opposite they are asking for.
They are probably asking for the 'additive inverse' which is what number do you add to 1 to get 0?
Well, 1+ (-1) = 0, so -1.
Also ENO ONE. Opposite of zero would be Infinite.

What are similarities and differences between the opposite of a non-zero number and the reciprocal of that number?
The answer depends on what you mean by the "opposite" of a number. A reciprocal is one type of opposite: it is the multiplicative opposite.
Does every number have an opposite?
It depends on what you mean by an opposite. Every real number has an additive opposite but 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
What is the product of a number and a recipical?
The product of a number and its reciprocal is one. A reciprocal is, quite simply, the opposite of the number.
What is a number that can be divided by some number number other than itself and one is called what?
The opposite of a prime number is a composite number.
What is the opposite side?
An "opposite side" depends on the shape that you have got. For a polygon with an even number of sides, (say 2n), the side which is opposite a given side is one that is nth from that side. In such a polygon a vertex does not have an opposite side. For a polygon with an odd number of sides, (say 2n+1), the side which is opposite a given vertex is one that is (n+1)th from that vertex. In such a polygon a side does not have an opposite side.

If a number is even then it's opposite is a whole number?
The opposite of an even number is an odd number.
Which number is the opposite of the number 2?
In number Systems , the opposite of the number can be represented by changing and reversing the sign of the number.-2 is the number is the opposite of the number 2.

The product of a number and its reciprocal is one. A reciprocal is, quite simply, the opposite of the number.
What is the opposite of any integer?
The additive opposite of the additive opposite is the number itself. The multiplicative opposite of the multiplicative opposite is the number itself, unless the number was 0, in which case the first opposite is not defined.
If a number is a counting number or the opposite of a counting number then is it an integer?
A counting number is the numbers you lear as a little kid, counting numbers are one and up. Integers include the counting numbers, 0, and the opposite (negative) of counting numbers. So yes, a counting number or the opposite of a counting number is an integer.

What is the opposite number of 0.93?
In number systems , the opposite of the number can be represented by changing and reversing the sign of the number. If 0.93 is the number then the opposite of the number would be -0.93
What is a number that can be divided by some number number other than itself and one is called what?
The opposite of a prime number is a composite number.
True or false the opposite of a number is less than the number?
False. Apart from the fact that there is no such thing as an opposite. If, by opposite, you mean negative (additive inverse), then start with a negative number. The negative of this will be positive, and so greater. If by opposite you mean the reciprocal (multiplicative inverse), start with a positive number less than one or a negative number less than -1.
