Answer: The answer is addition and multiplication.


Step-by-step explanation:  Closure property states that - for any numbers 'a' and 'b' belonging to a set A, if a*b also belongs to set A, then set A is said to be closed under the operation *.

The given set is X={2, 4, 6, . . .}. Let us check for the mathematical operations one by one.

(i) Addition: The addition of two even numbers is again an even number, so the given set is closed under addition. For example - 2+4=6, 4+6=10, etc.

(ii) Subtraction: The subtraction of two even numbers is either 0, an even number or a negative even number. So, X is not closed under subtraction. For example- 2-2=0, 4-2=2, 4-8=-4, etc.

(iii) Multiplication: The multiplication of two even numbers is again an even number. So, the set X is closed under multiplication. For example- 2×4=8, 6×4=24, etc.

(iv) Division: The division of two even numbers may or may not be an even number. So, X is not closed under division. For ex- 2/6=1/3, 6/8=3/4, etc.

Thus, the given set is closed under addition and multiplication.

Mrs. Jones bought 6 kilograms of rice. After filling 10 containers with the same
9966 [12]

There are 514 gram rice in each container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount of rice = 6 kg

1 kg = 1000 g

6 kg = 6*1000 = 6000 g

Number of containers  = 10

Rice left = 860 g

Let,

x be the amount in each container.

Total amount of rice - Number of containers*Amount in each container = Amount of rice left

6000-10x=860\\6000-860=10x\\5140=10x\\10x=5140

Dividing both sides by 10

\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{5140}{10}\\x=514

There are 514 gram rice in each container.
