There are 2 kinds of inverses..Additive and Multiplicative.
Additive inverse means you should get 0 as your result or sum and Multiplicative means having 1 as your product.
so you should just get the number that when added to 1/3 will make the sum 0.
you could simply do it mentally or equate it to 0 since you are looking for an unknown.:
=>x+1/3=0
=>x= -1/3 (transposed 1/3 to get the value of x)
that's all...

The additive inverse of a number is the opposite of the number. When the two are added, the result is zero.
