Answer:

\(-16\frac{5}{7}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Two numbers are additive inverse if their sum is equal to zero

Let

x-------> the additive inverse of \(16\frac{5}{7}\)

so

\(x+16\frac{5}{7}=0\)

solve for x

Subtract \(16\frac{5}{7}\) both sides

\(x+16\frac{5}{7}-16\frac{5}{7}=-16\frac{5}{7}\)

\(x=-16\frac{5}{7}\) -------> additive inverse
