    Hi, I'm in grade 11 at the moment and i am studying maths C
    I have received an assignment for it and its about groups.
    I know absolutely nothing about groups, the question is

    Consider the set {a,b,c,d} and it falls under any operation, (don't know how to make that symbol, its like an "o")
    the set is displayed within a Cayley table and forms an abelian group
    the table is:
    o | a | b | c | d |
    a | _ | _ | _ | _ |
    b | _ | c | _ | _ |
    c | _ | b | _ | _ |
    d | _ | a | _ | _ |

    thats what the table given looks like
    it says: "you should be able to find more than 1 solution
    if we assume that there is only 1 solution allowed, which solution would you selct? justify your answer.

    i do not get this at all =="
    any help would be muchly appreciated :) thanks

    ps. i need a lot of help with school work ==
