Answer:

multiplicative inverse: -1/3

additive inverse: 3

Explanation:

The "multiplicative inverse" is the fancy way to say "reciprocal". It's the number you multiply by to get a result of 1.

The "additive inverse" is the fancy way to say "opposite". It's the number you add to get a result of 0.
