No, a set of natural numbers is not a group under the operation of addition. For a set to be a group, it must satisfy four properties: closure, associativity, identity, and inverses. While the natural numbers are closed under addition and associative, there is no additive identity (0 is not included in the natural numbers) and no inverses (there is no natural number that can be added to another natural number to yield zero).

Is the set of natural numbers closed under addition?

Yes, when you add any group of natural numbers, the sum will also be a natural number.

Yes, the complex numbers, as well as the real numbers which are a subset of the complex numbers, form groups under addition.


What is ring and group in algebra?

Rings and Groups are algebraic structures. A Groupis a set of elements (numbers) with a binary operation (addition) that combines any two elements in the set to form a third element which is also in the set. The Group satisfies four axioms: closure, associativity, identity and invertibility. In addition, it is a Ring if it is Abelian group (that is, addition is commutative) and it has a second binary operation (multiplication) that is defined on its elements. This second operation is distributive over the first.

How do you check a multiple addition problem?

To check a multiple addition problem, you can use the following methods: First, add the numbers again to verify your original sum. Second, you can group the numbers in pairs or tens to simplify the addition process. Lastly, using the inverse operation of subtraction, subtract the individual numbers from the total to see if you return to zero. This helps ensure accuracy in your calculations.


Give two reason for the set of odd integers is not a group?

Assuming that the question is in the context of the operation "addition", The set of odd numbers is not closed under addition. That is to say, if x and y are members of the set (x and y are odd) then x+y not odd and so not a member of the set. There is no identity element in the group such that x+i = i+x = x for all x in the group. The identity element under addition of integers is zero which is not a member of the set of odd numbers.


Is 100 and 200 a whole number or natural number?

They are both whole numbers (integers) and natural numbers.All natural numbers are integers, but integers is a larger group of numbers.The group consists of the natural numbers, zero and the whole negative numbers (e.g. '-4' and '-560').
