If the opposite is meant to be the additive opposite and not the multiplicative opposite, then their sum is zero. The reason is that is what defines an additive opposite!

If by "opposite" you mean "additive inverse", the sum is zero. For example, 5 + (-5) = 0.
They equal zero.
zero pair
ππ»πππ²πΏ: In mathematics, the opposite of a number is its additive inverse. The opposite of 15 would be the number that, when added to 15, yields a sum of zero. Therefore, the opposite of 15 is -15.

The opposite of a number is its additive inverse, which means the number that, when added to it, results in a sum of zero. In this case, the opposite of 76 would be -76, as 76 + (-76) = 0. This relationship is based on the concept of symmetry around zero on the number line.
Addend is the number being added to another number in an addition problem to derive a sum.
When you add a number to another number the result is their sum

Opposite numbers are numbers such that their sum is equal to 0 So the opposite number of -98 is 98
If by "opposite" you mean "additive inverse", the sum is zero. For example, 5 + (-5) = 0.
Another number added to a number is the sum (total) of the two numbers.
The answer is simply 0!
They equal zero.
