Group Problem No. 2
Consider the following multiplication table for a group G and answer the following
questions.
Among the given example which example give us the same element so the
answer is a times d, therefore our identity element is D
b. Is the group commutative?
Therefore, the answer is YES! Since it satisfies the properties of commutative property.
b. Is there some x ∈𝐺𝐺 such that x3 = d?
smallest positive integer n, such that an= e, where e denotes the identity element of
Based on the given table, our identity is D, and it is being asked under the
order of 3 which is really IMPOSSIBLE with the group of 5 elements because that
