Subjective Type

Fill in the blanks to make the statement true: The additive inverse of $$14$$ is ______.

Solution

Two integers whose sum is zero are called additive inverse of each other
Let $$'a'$$ be the positive integer.

Thus, additive inverse of positive integer $$'a'$$ is $$-a$$ as $$a - a = 0$$
Similarly, additive inverse of $$14$$ is $$-14$$ as $$14 - 14 = 0$$

$$\textbf{Hence, additive inverse of a positive integer 14 is}\ \underline{\bf{-14}}$$
