MCQ
The relation $R$ defined in $N$ as $aRb \Leftrightarrow b$ is divisible by $a$ is
  • Reflexive but not symmetric
  • B
    Symmetric but not transitive
  • C
    Symmetric and transitive
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
Reflexive but not symmetric
a
(a) For any $a \in N$, we find that $a|a$, therefore $R$ is reflexive but $R$ is not transitive, because $aRb$ does not imply that $bRa$.
