do you know what mean opposite of a number - how you get it ?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so than how ?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Well its found by changing the sign of the number and if a number was -5 for example, the opposite would be 5. I just dont understand this one since it is a fraction. Should I convert it into a decimal??

Should I do \[-2 \frac{ 1 }{ 3 } = -2.33333333333 \] OPPOSITE: 2.33333333333?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

\[2.33333333333 = 2 \frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Is that correct? :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the opposite of -2 1/3 will be the fraction in front with integer so hwta is the opposite of -2 1/3 so what assuming with -2 1/3 will result zero so than what will be this secure ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
