oh so its like 0 is the boss so like the number 6 opposite is -6
The opposite of 6 is -6 because 6 is a positve and -6 is a negative.
It all goes from 0 on a number line.
If you have a number line, look at the zero and go up to positve 6, next go back to zero and go down -6.
If you see what I mean, that's good:-)
Example: The opposite of -12 is 12
The opposite of 5 is -5
Hope this helps:-)
