    Groups and rings are two fundamental topics in abstract algebra aside from modular arithmetic. A group is a set equipped with an operation that combines any two elements to form a third element, satisfying four properties. The set of integers under addition forms a group. Rings generalize the properties of both groups and fields by dropping the requirement that every non-zero element must have a multiplicative inverse. The set of integers forms a ring under addition and multiplication. These abstract algebra topics can be applied in coding theory, crystallography, and quantum mechanics.

    ACTIVITY 2

    Cite two topics in Abstract Algebra (except Modular Arithmetic) and explain by giving example.
    Lastly, provide practical use of this topic ( or how these topics can be used in practical way).

    Abstract Algebra is branch of mathematics that studies algebraic structures and the properties in
    a general and abstract way. Aside from modular arithmetic, here are two of other fundamental topics in
    abstract algebra, along with explanations, examples, and practical use:

    1. GROUPS
    Explanation A group is a set equipped with an operation that combines any two elements to
    form a third elements, satisfying four properties; closure, associativity, identity, and invertibility.
    Example The set of integers under addition forms a group. The integers are closed under
    addition, addition is associative, the identity element is 0, and every integer has an additive
    inverse.
