Consider the binary operation ∧ on the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} defined by a ∧ b = min {a, b}. Write the operation table of the operation ∧

Solution:

The binary operation ∧ on the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} defined by

a ∧ b = min {a, b}

for all a, b ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.

The operation table for the given operation ∧ can be given as:

Ù	1	2	3	4	5
1	1	1	1	1	1
2	1	2	2	2	2
3	1	2	3	3	3
4	1	2	3	4	4
5	1	2	3	4	5
