A binary operator is simply an operator that works with two operands (for example, two numbers). The binary operator is usually written between the two operands.
Examples include the familiar operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division - for example, in:
2 + 3
the "plus" is the binary operator, which works on the two numbers written on either side of it.
What is an operator: Basically a function (calculation rule), written in a special way.

What is inverse in algebra?
Given a set and a binary operation defined on the set, the inverse of any element is that element which, when combined with the first, gives the identity element for the binary operation. If the set is integers and the binary operation is addition, then the identity is 0, and the inverse of an integer k is -k. If the set is rational numbers and the binary operation is multiplication, then the identity element is 1 and the inverse of any member of the set, x (other than 0) is 1/x.
Can two negatives make positive?
They can if the binary operation is multiplication or division.
What is Binary operation and explain in any 3 binary operation with an example?
A binary operation acting on a set is one where the input of two elements is combined into a single output. For example, addition: x and y are combined into x + y multiplication: x and y are combined into x*y Euclidean distance: x and y are combined into sqrt(x2 + y2)
How do you make 19 out of 1 2 3 5 and multiplication division adding and subtracting one time?
A binary operation is one which takes two numbers and combines them into one. +,-,* and / are all binary operations. If you start with 4 numbers and apply one binary opeartion (to two of the numbers) you are left with three. After two binary operations you are left with two numbers and after three binary operations you are left with only one number. You cannot, therefore, carry out the fourth binary operation if you start with four numbers.
Why can you multiply decimals?
Because multiplication is a binary operation that is defined so that it is valid for all numbers.
