Question

Define an associative binary operation on a set.

✓

Answer

An operation * on a set A is called associative binary operation if and only if it is a binary operation as well as associative, i.e. it must satisfy the following two conditions:

$\text{a}\times\text{b}\in\text{A},\forall\text{ a},\text{b}\in\text{A}$ (Binary operation)
$\text{a}\times\text{b}\times\text{c}=\text{a}\times\text{b}\times\text{c},\forall\text{ a, b, c}\in\text{A}$ (Associative)
