The opposite of the verb to want would be to not want, to disdain or eschew.

The opposite of the concept want may be disinterest or dislike.

As part of one's desires, wants are the complement (opposite motivation) of needs.

Why is the opposite of negative numbers positive?

When you are talking about opposites, or inverses; we know that for everything there is an opposite to that particular "thing". As in happy opposite of happy would be sad, opposite of tall would be short, opposite of high would be low. Math has these type of opposites as well, for example, opposite of addition is subtraction, opposite of multiplication is division. So when you think of negative numbers there opposite would be positive. what is the opposite of a negative person? A positive person. Math works kind of the same way, if you want to cancel a number out to get zero or take its additive inverse you would add its opposite. for example, the number 6 we want to find its opposite to get an overall value of zero what do we have to add to "6" to get zero? We would have to add -6 (negative 6) or its opposite. 6+ (-6)= 0 or 6-6=0 I hope this explanation helps a bit!

I suppose you mean what is an opposite reciprocal? At any rate, we should start there. The opposite reciprocal is -(1/x) so let's take the number 5. The opposite reciprocal would be -1/5.
