Is * defined on the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} by a * b = L.C.M. of a and b a binary operation? Justify your answer.
उत्तर
The operation * on the set A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} is defined as
a * b = L.C.M. of a and b.
Then, the operation table for the given operation * can be given as:
* | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
2 | 2 | 2 | 6 | 4 | 10 |
3 | 3 | 6 | 3 | 12 | 15 |
4 | 4 | 4 | 12 | 4 | 20 |
5 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 5 |
It can be observed from the obtained table that:
3 * 2 = 2 * 3 = 6 ∉ A, 5 * 2 = 2 * 5 = 10 ∉ A, 3 * 4 = 4 * 3 = 12 ∉ A
3 * 5 = 5 * 3 = 15 ∉ A, 4 * 5 = 5 * 4 = 20 ∉ A
Hence, the given operation * is not a binary operation.
