MCQ
Which of the following is true?
  • A
    $*$ defined by $\text{a}*\text{b}=\frac{\text{a + b}}2$ is a binary operation on $Z.$
  • $*$ defined by $\text{a}*\text{b}=\frac{\text{a + b}}2$ is a binary operation on $Q.$
  • C
    All binary commutative operations are associative.
  • D
    Subtraction is a binary operation on $N.$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$*$ defined by $\text{a}*\text{b}=\frac{\text{a + b}}2$ is a binary operation on $Q.$
For option $a$, if we take $3$ and $2$ then
$3*2=\frac{5}2\in\text{Z}$.
So, option $a$ is not true.
For option $b$, if we take any two numbers $a$ and $b$
then $\frac{\text{a + b}}2$ belongs to $Q$ for $\text{a, b}\in\text{Q}$.
So, option $b$ is correct.
For option $d$, if we take $2, 3$ then $2-3=-1\in\text{N}$.
So, option $d$ is not true.
Option $c$ is not true.
