What is a binary operation?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

To define: The binary operation.

Explanation of Solution

A binary operation is an operation, or rule, that can be performed on two and only two elements (input) of the set. The resulting element (output) is a single element.

Add two elements, the resulting sum is a single element. Likewise for multiplication.

Examples for addition is 1+5=6 .

Example for multiplication is 1×5=5 .

But subtraction and division only for exceptional case.

Example for subtraction 58 is not binary operation in natural numbers because 58=3 not in .

Division is a binary operation only on \{0} . Since 0 is undefined.

Note:

A reciprocal of a number is not a binary operation, since it is an operation on a single element.
