Question
Let 'o' be a binary operation on the set $Q_0$ of all non-zero rational numbers defined by $\text{a}\ ^*\ \text{b}=\frac{\text{ab}}{2}$ for all $\text{a},\text{b}\in\text{Q}_0.$
Find the invertible elements of $Q_0​​​​​​​$.

Answer

We have,
$\text{a }^*\text{ b}=\frac{\text{ab}}{2}$ for all $\text{a},\text{b}\in\text{Q}_0$
Let $\text{b}\in\text{Q}_0$ be the inverse of $\text{a}\in\text{Q}_0$ with respect to *, then,
a * b = b * a = e for all $\text{a}\in\text{Q}_0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{ab}}{2}=\text{e}\Rightarrow\frac{\text{ab}}{2}=2$
$\Rightarrow\text{b}=\frac{4}{\text{a}}$
Thus, $\text{b}=\frac{4}{\text{a}}$ is the inverse of a with respect to *.
