An additive inverse means the number you add to it to get zero. In other words, the negative of it. So the additive inverse of 6 is -6, and the additive inverse of -12 is 12.

(-12) + X = 0
X = 12 (additive inverse)

+ 24, 12 to cancel out the negative and 12 to get you the number your looking for.
