Explain a thought process you might use when trying to find the additive or multiplicative inverse of a number or expression.

Definition of additive inverse.- If two numbers are added together and the sum is zero, they are the additive inverse of each other. 

IF A + B = 0 , they are the additive inverse of each other. 


Multiplicative Inverse.- If two numbers are multiplied together and the product is one. They are the multiplicative inverse of each other, also called reciprocal. 

A.B = 1 , they are the multiplicative inverse of each other. 


Example of: 

Additive inverses : 5 + ( - 5 ) = 0 

Multiplicative inverses5 x 1/5 = 1
