Question
Fill in the Blank:
`(-5)/(-12)`+ its additive inverse = ______
Solution
`(-5)/(-12)`+ its additive inverse of `(-5)/-12 = 0`
Since the additive inverse of `(-5)/-12 "is" (-5)/-12`, we calculate:
Additive inverse = `- (-5)/-12 = -5/12`
`(-5)/-12 + (-5)/-12` additive inverse = `5/12 + (-5/12) = 0`
`(-5)/-12` + its additive inverse = 0
