Closure Property Worksheet

                    Lesson 1

                                                             

                                                            A set is considered closed, under an operation, if the operation on two elements of the set

                                                            produces another element of the set.

                                                           

                                                            If an element outside the set is created, then the operation is not closed.

                                                                                                             

                                                            Problem:                   Does this set display a closed property?

 

                                                                                      15 + 10 = 25

 

                                                            Step 1:                    Add the even numbers i.e. 15 + 10 = 25

                             

                     

                                                                                Solution                          If we add two even numbers and the answer is also even than the

                                                            Step 2:                        property is closed. 

                                                                                           

                                                             Solution                    The answer is:  Yes, this set displays a closed property. 

 Step 3:                                                                      

 Complete                                                                   

                                                                                                                               

                                                             Try two practice problems:  

 

                                                                                               Does this set display a closed property?

 

A. 6 + 4 = 10

 

B. 6 – 4 = 3
