Step 2: Identify the opposite. The opposite of a number is found by changing the sign. The opposite of a number is the same distance away from 0 on a number line, but of opposite sign. Since the opposite of a number x is given by −x , the opposite of 23 is -23.
opposite of 23 = -(23) = -23.
The opposite of a negative number is always a positive number.
The opposite of -3 is 3.
On the number line, the negative numbers are a mirror image of the positive numbers with zero in the middle. Because the numbers 2 and −2 are the same distance from zero, they are called opposites. The opposite of 2 is −2 , and the opposite of −2 is 2 as shown in figure(a).
Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite is 24. The opposite of 24 will be -24.
(vii) The opposite of 25 is – 25. (viii) The opposite of – 15 is 15.
Opposites are the same distance from 0 on a number line, and they are on opposite sides of 0. The opposite of 0 is 0. Examples. The opposite of 5 is -5. The opposite of -12 is 12.
2 and -2 are opposites because they are both 2 places from 0 but they are on opposite sides of 0. (The opposite of 9 is -9. The opposite of -16 is 16.)
-16 is a negative integer. To find its opposite, change the negative sign to a positive sign. The answer is that the opposite of -16 is +16 or 16.
The opposite of a positive number is negative, and the opposite of a negative number is positive. Since the opposite of 0 is 0 (which is neither positive nor negative), then −0 = 0. The opposite of the opposite of a number is the number itself.
2. The number 10 is the same distance from 0 as −10 , but on the opposite side of 0 . So 10 is the opposite of −10 as shown below.
Both 7 and −7 are seven units from 0 on the number line, so 7 and −7 are opposites of each other. Let's try an example with a negative number. Opposite numbers are numbers which are the same distance away from 0.
1: 23 is one of the most commonly cited prime numbers - a number that can only be divided by itself and one. Twenty three is the lowest prime that consists of consecutive digits. Primes have been described as the "atoms" of mathematics - the building blocks of the world of numbers.
The value of (23) is equal to twenty three.
Negative numbers, fractions, and decimals are neither natural numbers nor whole numbers.
For example, the opposite of 20 is -20.
Therefore, we can say that the opposite number of -33is +33. Therefore, we can say that the opposite number of -21 is +21. Note: Students may make mistakes in finding the opposite number of a number. The opposite number of any number is given as additive inverse.
The opposite of 19 is −19.
A number line is thought to begin at zero (0). Left of zero, there are only negative numbers, and right of zero, there are only positive numbers. So, -15 stays on left side of zero in number line, and the opposite of -15 is 15, which lies on right side of zero or neutral.
The opposite of a negative integer is a positive integer. Step 2: The opposite of the integer −26 is +26.
The opposite of negative nine is positive nine.
The Opposite of a negative number is its positive number. There opposite of -20 is 20.
What are the Factors of 24? The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and its negative factors are -1, -2, -3, -4, -6, -8, -12, -24.
The opposite of −49 is its additive inverse 49 .
