That depends on how you define "opposite." It could be -6, or 1/6 or something that isn't a number.
It depends on what you mean by an opposite. Every real number has an additive opposite but 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
The answer is always a positive number or zero. In this case just change the sign....+6 is your answer.
The absolute value is its distance from zero on a number line. So, for an example, the absolute value of both +6 and -6 is 6, as both values are 6 units away from zero although they are in opposite directions.
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.
No, the opposite of -6 would be 6, which is larger.
-6

Another name for the opposite of a number is Additive Inverse.
-6. The additive inverse of a number is the number, that, when added to the original number, causes it to equal zero. You can kind of think of it like an opposite number. So, the additive inverse of 2 is -2, and -4 is 4.
It is the sign that is opposite, not the number But if the number magnitude is the same, it is correct to say that ,for example, negative 6 is the opposite of positive six. But negative 4 is not the opposite of negative 8, for example
When you are talking about opposites, or inverses; we know that for everything there is an opposite to that particular "thing". As in happy opposite of happy would be sad, opposite of tall would be short, opposite of high would be low. Math has these type of opposites as well, for example, opposite of addition is subtraction, opposite of multiplication is division. So when you think of negative numbers there opposite would be positive. what is the opposite of a negative person? A positive person. Math works kind of the same way, if you want to cancel a number out to get zero or take its additive inverse you would add its opposite. for example, the number 6 we want to find its opposite to get an overall value of zero what do we have to add to "6" to get zero? We would have to add -6 (negative 6) or its opposite. 6+ (-6)= 0 or 6-6=0 I hope this explanation helps a bit!
+6
Depends on what you mean by opposite. It could be -55 or 0.0182 (approx)
It depends on what you mean by an opposite. Every real number has an additive opposite but 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
The opposite sides of a die always total 7, so 2 is opposite to 5, 3 to 4 and 6 to 1
The opposite of an even number is an odd number.
