Question

The sum of additive inverse and multiplicative inverse of 6 is ​

Answer 1

Answer:

- 5 5/6 or you can write it as -35/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse of 6 is -6 because 6 + (-6) = 0 while the multiplicative inverse is 1/6 because 6 * 1/6 = 1.

So the answer is  - 6 + 1/6 = - 5 5/6.

Answer 2

Answer:

- $\frac{35}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse is the opposite of 6, that is - 6 ( 6 - 6 = 0 )

The multiplicative inverse is the reciprocal of 6 , that is $\frac{1}{6}$ ( 6 × $\frac{1}{6}$ = 1 )

Thus their sum is

- 6 + $\frac{1}{6}$ = - $\frac{36}{6}$ + $\frac{1}{6}$ = - $\frac{35}{6}$
