Real numbers form a fundamental mathematical concept encompassing rational and irrational numbers. Understanding the properties of real numbers is essential for solving equations, simplifying expressions, and mastering various mathematical disciplines. In this article, we will engage in a multiple-choice question (MCQ) format to explore and reinforce our knowledge of the property of real number.

Property of Real Numbers

In this article, “property of real number” refer to closure, commutative, associative, identity, and zero properties. These are vital for solving mathematical problems and building a strong foundation in algebra and beyond. In other words, the properties of real numbers are just one of the basic foundations of mathematics.

Closure Property of Real Numbers

1. Closure Property of Addition
The sum of real numbers is also a real number.
Statement:
If a, b \in R then a+b \in R
Example:
7+9=16
Where 16 is a real number.

2. Closure Property of Subtraction
The difference between any two real numbers is also a real number.
Statement:
If a, b \in R then a-b \in R
Example:
7-9=-2
Where -2 is a real number.

3. Closure Property of Multiplication
The Product of real numbers is also a real number.
Statement:
If a, b \in R then a . b \in R
Example:
7 \times 9=63
Where 63 is a real number.

4. Closure Property of Division
The quotient of any two real numbers is also a real number but it should be noted that the divisor is not zero.
Statement
For any real numbers a, b \ (where \ b \neq 0 )
If \ a, b \in R \ then \ \frac{a}{b} \in R \ (b \neq 0)
Example:
\frac{7}{9}=0.7777 \ldots
Where 0.7777 \ldots is a real number.

Commutative Property of Real Numbers

1. Commutative Property of Addition:
According to commutative property of Addition states that, if we change the position or order of two Real Numbers in Adding does not change the final result.

16 =16

2. Commutative Property of Multiplication

Multiply B.S by 3
\frac{x}{3} \times 3 > 5 \times 3
x > 15
2 x > 24

\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{-24}{2}
x=-12

Division Property of Inequality

  • If we divide an inequality by a positive number, then the inequality sign is always remained same.

Then \frac{8}{4} < \frac{12}{4}
So 2 < 3

3. 2 x > 24
Divide B.S by 2
\frac{2 x}{2} > \frac{24}{2}
x > 12

O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

Additive
Explanation:
If we add the same number or expression on both sides of an equation, the equation does not change which means both the sides remain equal.


30. If a=b then also ac=bc , it is ________ property of equality.
O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

Multiplicative
Explanation:
If we Multiply the same number or expression on both sides of an equation, the equation does not change which means both the sides remain equal.

36. If a > b \ and \ b >c \ then \ a > c , it is ________ property of inequality.
O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Transitive
O All of them
Show Answer

Transitive
Explanation:
If a greater than b under a rule and b greater than c under the same rule then  a greater than  c is known as transitive property of inequlity.


37. If a < b \ and \ b < c \ then \ a < c, it is ________ property.
O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Transitive
O All of them
Show Answer

Transitive
Explanation:
If a less than b under a rule and b less than c under the same rule then  a less than  c is known as transitive property of inequlity.


38. If a > b then a+c > b+c , it is ________ property of inequlity.
O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Transitive
O All of them
Show Answer

Additive
Explanation:
If we add the same number or expression on both sides of an inequality, but the result will remain the same. i.e. left side is greater than right side.


39. If a < b then a+c < b+c , it is ________ property.
O Additive
O Multiplicative
O Transitive
O All of them
Show Answer

Additive
Explanation:
If we add the same number or expression on both sides of an inequality, but the result will remain the same. i.e. left side is less than right side.


40. If x > 5 then ________
O x \times 2 > 5 \times 2
O x \times 2 < 5 \times 2
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

x \times 2 > 5 \times 2
Explanation:
If we multiply the same number or expression on both sides of an inequality, but the result will remain the same. i.e. left side is greater than right side.
Note:
The number should be positive.


41. If x > 5 then ________
O x \times -2 > 5 \times -2
O x \times -2 < 5 \times -2
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

x \times -2 < 5 \times -2
Explanation:
If we multiply the same Negative number to both sides of an inequality, the result will changed. i.e. left side becomes less than right side.


42. For c > 0 \ and \ a < b then Multiplicative property ________
O ac < bc
O ac > bc
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

ac < bc
Explanation:
If we multiply the same Positive number to both sides of an inequality, the result will remain same. i.e. left side is less than right side.


43. For c < 0 \ and \ a < b then Multiplicative property ________
O ac < bc
O ac > bc
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

ac > bc
Explanation:
If we multiply the same Negative number to both sides of an inequality, the result will changed. i.e. left side becomes greaer than right side.


44. For c < 0 \ and \ a > b then Multiplicative property ________
O ac < bc
O ac > bc
O Both a & b
O None of these
Show Answer

ac < bc
Explanation:
If we multiply the same Negative number to both sides of an inequality, the result will changed. i.e. left side becomes less than right side.
