##### Solution :-

(i) $$\frac{2}{8}$$

Additive inverse = -$$\frac{2}{8}$$

(ii) $$-\frac{5}{9}$$

Additive inverse =$$\frac{5}{9}$$

(iii) $$\frac{-6}{-5} = \frac{6}{5}$$

Additive inverse = $$\frac{-6}{5}$$

(iv) $$\frac{2}{-9}$$ = $$\frac{-2}{9}$$

Additive inverse =  $$\frac{2}{9}$$

(v) $$\frac{19}{-6} = \frac{-19}{6}$$

Additive inverse = $$\frac{19}{6}$$
