Question:

difference between additive inverse and inverse?

what is the difference between inverse and additive inverse on rational numbers?

Answer:

Hi Inverse most probably refers to the reciprocal of the rational number. Additive inverse is the number, which when added to the original number, gives zero. For example: For 3, inverse is 1/3 and additive inverse is -3.
Get it tested before anything else. Avoid use of attic. If it is not disturbed, there is little chance of harm.
