Closure Property
The closure property means that a set is closed for some mathematical operation. That is, a set is closed with respect to that operation if the operation can always be completed with elements in the set. Thus, a set either has or lacks closure with respect to a given operation.
For example, the set of even natural numbers, [2, 4, 6, 8, . . .], is closed with respect to addition because the sum of any two of them is another even natural number, which is also a member of the set. (Natural numbers are defined as the set: [1, 2, 3, 4, . . .].) It is not closed with respect to division because the quotients 6/2 and 4/8, for example, cannot be computed without using odd numbers (6/2 = 3) or fractions (4/8 = ½g;), which are not members of the set.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A set that is closed under an operation or collection of operations is said to satisfy a closure property. Often a closure property is introduced as an axiom, which is then usually called the axiom of closure. ... For example, the set of even integers is closed under addition, but the set of odd integers is not.
