Question

Using the information and your understanding till now, choose from the given options, the properties which hold good for the division of integers?

• A. Closure property
• B. Commutative property
• C. Associative property
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is D

None of these

Division is not closed as quotient of two integers is not always an integer (eg. $3÷2=1.5$), and division by zero is undefined.

Division is not commutative.
For example, $\frac{1}{2}$ is not the same as $\frac{2}{1}$.

Division is not associative.
For example, $(1÷2)÷3=\frac{\left(1/2\right)}{3}$ is not the same as $1÷(2÷3)=\frac{1}{\left(2/3\right)}$.
