47. Let*′ be the binary operation on the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} defined by a *′ b = H.C.F. of a and b. Is the operation *′ same as the operation * defined in Exercise 4 above? Justify your answer.

The binary operation *′ on the set {1, 2, 3 4, 5} is defined as a *′ b = H.C.F of a and b.
The operation table for the operation *′ can be given as:
*′ | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
3 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 |
4 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
5 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 5 |
We observe that the operation tables for the operations * and *′ are the same.
Thus, the operation *′ is same as the operation*.

⇒ (y, x) ∈ R V (x, y) ∈ R
(x, y) ∈ R ⇒ 2x = 3y and (y, x) ∈ R ⇒ 3x = 2y
Which holds only for (0, 0)
Which does not belongs to R.
∴ Value of n = 0
f is increasing function
x < 5x < 7x

f (x) < f (5x) < f (7x)
->
Given f (k) =
Case I : If x is even then g (x) = x . (i)
Case II : If x is odd then g (x + 1) = x + 1 . (ii)
From (i) & (ii), g (x) = x, when x is even
So total no. of functions = 105 × 1 = 105
