A non-integer.
The opposite of 243 is -243.
An integer is just a whole number, excluding zero. Any positive integer will always have an opposite just by placing a negative sign in front of the positive integer. You can also say that any negative whole number is an integer.
An example of an integer is... - 4 is the opposite of 4, 21 is the opposite of - 21.
An integer can be negative or positive, so if the integer is, let's say, -6. The opposite, or absolute value, of -6, is 6. So in this case, the opposite has more value than the actual integer. Does that answer the question? :D Best of luck, BrandonRocker98

An Integer
The opposite of 243 is -243.
The opposite of the integer 2 is -2. In mathematics, the opposite of a number is found by changing its sign. Therefore, while 2 is a positive integer, -2 is its negative counterpart.
A composite number is a number that has more divisors than 1 and itself.
Because that is how the opposite of a number is defined.
Here are a few: An integer is a counting number, or a whole number. If you have a negative counting number, zero, or a positive counting number, you have an integer, and any integer will be a member of one of those three sets of numbers. Zero is the only integer that is neither positive or negative. Each integer (except zero) has a compliment with an opposite sign.
To identify the opposite of an integer on a number line, locate the integer's position on the line. The opposite of that integer is found by moving the same distance in the opposite direction from zero. For example, if the integer is +3, you would move 3 units to the left of zero to find -3, which is its opposite. This visual representation helps clearly show the relationship between integers and their opposites.
technically speaking yes the opposite of 5 is -5
The opposite of an integer is the integer that, when added to it, results in a sum of zero. In this case, the opposite of -6 is 6, since -6 + 6 = 0. The opposite integer is also known as the additive inverse.
An integer is just a whole number, excluding zero. Any positive integer will always have an opposite just by placing a negative sign in front of the positive integer. You can also say that any negative whole number is an 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.
A whole number is called an integer. The opposite of a whole number is a negative integer. An example would be 4 and -4.
