Question

Consider a binary operation $$ on set{1,2,3,4,5} given by the following multiplication table:
(i)Compute $(2 3) * 4$ and $2 * (3 * 4)$

$\begin{matrix} * & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 3 & 1 & 1 & 3 & 1 & 1 4 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 4 & 1 5 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 5 \end{matrix}$

(ii) Is $$ commutative?

$\begin{matrix} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 3 & 1 & 1 & 3 & 1 & 1 4 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 4 & 1 5 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 5 \end{matrix}$

(iii)Compute $(2 * 3) \times (4 a s t 5)$
$\begin{matrix} * & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 3 & 1 & 1 & 3 & 1 & 1 4 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 4 & 1 5 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 5 \end{matrix}$

Solution

We have $(2 * 3) * 4 = (1) * 4 = 1$
and $2 * (3 * 4) = 2 * 1 = 1$

For every $a, b \in$ {1,2,3,4,5},we have $a * b = b * a$ .
Therefore, the operation $$ is commutative

We have $(2 3) = 1$ and $(4 * 5) = 1$
Therefore, $(2 * 3) * (4 * 5) = 1 * 1 = 1$

We have (2∗3)∗4=(1)∗4=1 and 2∗(3∗4)=2∗1=1 For every a,b∈ {1,2,3,4,5},we have a∗b=b∗a. Therefore, the operation ∗ is commutative We have (2∗3)=1 and (4∗5)=1 Therefore, (2∗3)∗(4∗5)=1∗1=1

We have $(2 * 3) * 4 = (1) * 4 = 1$
and $2 * (3 * 4) = 2 * 1 = 1$

For every $a, b \in$ {1,2,3,4,5},we have $a * b = b * a$ .
Therefore, the operation $$ is commutative

We have $(2 3) = 1$ and $(4 * 5) = 1$
Therefore, $(2 * 3) * (4 * 5) = 1 * 1 = 1$
