Rational Multiplication is Closed

Theorem
The operation of multiplication on the set of rational numbers $\Q$ is well-defined and closed:
 * $\forall x, y \in \Q: x \times y \in \Q$

Proof
Follows directly from the definition of rational numbers as the quotient field of the integral domain $\left({\Z, +, \times}\right)$ of integers.

So $\left({\Q, +, \times}\right)$ is a field, and therefore a priori $\times$ is well-defined and closed on $\Q$.
