Algebraic Structure- Abstract Algebra

  A non-empty set G together with at least one binary operation defined on it is called an algebraic structure. Thus if G is a non-empty set and “*” is a binary operation onG, then  is an algebraic structure.
                       
are all algebraic structures. Since addition and multiplication are both binary operations on the set R of real numbers,  is an algebraic structure equipped with two operations.



Example:  If the binary operation  on Q the set of rational numbers is defined by
                               for every
show that  is commutative and associative.
Solution:

            (1) ” is commutative in  because if, then
                       

            (2)” is associative in because if  then
