Definition:Multiplicative Group of Real Numbers

Definition
The multiplicative group of real numbers $\left({\R_{\ne 0}, \times}\right)$ is the set of real numbers without zero under the operation of multiplication.

 * Non-Zero Real Numbers under Multiplication form Abelian Group

Thus realmultiplication is:


 * Well-defined on $\R_{\ne 0}$
 * Closed on $\R_{\ne 0}$
 * Associative on $\R_{\ne 0}$
 * Commutative on $\R_{\ne 0}$
 * The identity of $\left({\R_{\ne 0}, \times}\right)$ is $1$
 * Each element of $\left({\R_{\ne 0}, \times}\right)$ has an inverse.
