Question
Let*′ be the binary operation on the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} defined by a *′ b = H.C.F. of a and b. Is the operation *′ same as the operation * defined in Exercise 4 above? Justify your answer.
Solution
The binary operation *′ on the set {1, 2, 3 4, 5} is defined as a *′ b = H.C.F of a and b.
The operation table for the operation *′ can be given as:
| * | 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 |
We observe that the operation tables for the operations * and *′ are the same.
Thus, the operation *′ is same as the operation*.
