Question

Let R be the equivalence relation in the set A=0,1,2,3,4,5 given by R=(a,b):2 divides(ab). Write the equivalence class [0].

Open in App
Solution

A = {0,1,2,3,4,5}
R is an equivalence relation and
R = {(a,b):2divides(ab)}
The elements xA satisfying aRx constitute a subset Aa of A,
called an equivalence class of A with respect to R determined by a.
Thus, [a] = {x:xAandaRx}
[0] = {0,2,4}
