Which of the following is not zero?
  • A
    $0\times0$
  • B
    $\frac{0}{3}$
  • C

What is the multiplicative identity element in the set of whole numbers?
  • A
    $0$
  • $1$
  • C
    $-1$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
Correct option: B.
$1$

We know that if a is a whole number, then $a \times 1 = a = 1 \times a.$
Therefore, $1$ is the multiplicative identity element for multiplication of whole numbers because it does not change the identity or value of the whole number during the operation of multiplication.
Hence, the correct answer is option $(b).$

$\frac{-19}{12}$
The correct option is $(b).$
Let the number that is to be subtracted be $x.$
$\frac{-3}{4}-\text{x}=\frac{5}{6}$
$\Rightarrow-\text{x}=\frac{5}{6}-\Big(\frac{-3}{4}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow-\text{x}=\frac{5}{6}+\frac{-3}{4}$
