Question

The multiplicative identity for whole number​

Answer 1

1 is the multiplicative identity for whole numbers.

Explanation:

Whole numbers:

• This is the set of all the natural numbers including zero, numbers which do not contain fractions ( parts) or negative number. i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5....... ∞

Multiplicative identity:

• An element by with the number should be multiply to get the the same number.

• Other way of saying: if two numbers are being multiplied with each other, and their product is one of the numbers that are being multiplied, then the other number is the multiplicative inverse of the first Number. ex. If a × b = a, then b is the multiplicative identity of a.

⟹ 1 × 1 = 1

⟹ 1 × 6 = 6

⟹ 1 × 7 = 7

here, we can see that when we multiply any whole number with 1, the product is the same whole Number.

1 is the multiplicative identity of any real number ( which also includes whole numbers )

Answer 2

$\huge\underline\bold{\mathbb{QUESTION}}$

The multiplicative identity for whole number is ??

$\huge\underline\bold{\mathbb{ANSWER}}$

$\bold{1}$ is the multiplicative identity for whole number.

For example,

Let's take the numbers $14$ and $17.$

• $\:\:14\times 1 = 14$

• $\:\:17\times 1 = 17$

In both case, we can see that when $1$ when multiplied with the number gives the same number as product. Hence, $1$ is multiplicative identity for both $14$ and $17.$

$\large{⇝}$ Whole numbers $\large{\longrightarrow}$

Whole numbers include all number including $0$ but not the negative numbers. Whole numbers are:

$0,\:1,\:2,\:3,\:4,\:5\:......\: \infty$

$\large{⇝}$ Natural numbers $\large{\longrightarrow}$

Natural numbers include all number excluding 0 and the negative numbers. Natural numbers are:

$1,\:2,\:3,\:4,\:5\:...... \:\infty$

$\large{⇝}$ Integers $\large{\longrightarrow}$

Integers includes both negative and positive numbers and also $0$. Integers are:

$-\infty\: .......-3, -2,-1,\:0,\:1,\:2,\:3\:....... \:\infty$

$\large{⇝}$ Multiplicative identity $\large{\longrightarrow}$

The multiplicative identity of whole numbers means that any whole number multiplied by $1$ gives the same number. For example, $a\times 1=a.$
