Opposite numbers are two numbers whose distance from the origin of the coordinate axis (to zero) is the same but differ by a sign.
Numbers 1 and -1 are opposite numbers because they are equidistant from zero (one box or one unit).
These numbers differ by a sign, with only one number to the right of zero (1) and the other to the left of zero (-1).
The opposite numbers for -2 is 2; -3 is 3; -4 is 4 and so on.

The number opposite to zero is zero.   
 
Do not confuse opposite numbers with inverse numbers.
The inverse of a number is called a fraction.
The inverse of ab is ba.
Example:
 The inverse of number 23 is 32.
 You can also determine the inverse of a negative number:
 
Theinversepartof3110is1031 
 
To get an inverse number, swap the denominator of the part with the numerator, the sign remains the same.
