0.1 Additive Inverse :
The additive inverse of 0.1 is -0.1.
This means that when we add 0.1 and -0.1, the result is zero:
0.1 + (-0.1) = 0
Additive Inverse of a Decimal Number
For decimal numbers, we simply change the sign of the number:
- Original number: 0.1
- Additive inverse: -0.1
To verify: 0.1 + (-0.1) = 0

Graphical Representation
On a coordinate plane:
- The point (0.1, 0) is reflected across the y-axis to (-0.1, 0).
- The midpoint between these two points is always (0, 0).
Series Involving 0.1 and Its Additive Inverse
Consider the alternating series: 0.1 + (-0.1) + 0.1 + (-0.1) + ...
The sum of this series oscillates between 0 and 0.1, never converging unless 0.1 is 0.
In Number Theory
For integer values:
- If 0.1 is even, its additive inverse is also even.
- If 0.1 is odd, its additive inverse is also odd.
- The sum of the digits of 0.1 and its additive inverse may or may not be the same.
