Question

An integer m is said to be related to another integer n if m is a multiple of n. Then, the relation is

  1. Reflexive and symmetric  
  2. Reflexive and transitive  
  3. Symmetric and transitive  
  4. Equivalence relation  

The correct answer is: Reflexive and transitive


    For any integer n comma we have
    n vertical line n rightwards double arrow n blank R blank n
    So, n blank R blank n for all n blank element of Z
    rightwards double arrow R is reflexive
    Now, 2 vertical line 6 but 6 does not divide 2
    rightwards double arrow left parenthesis 2 comma blank 6 right parenthesis element of R but left parenthesis 62 right parenthesis not an element of R
    So, R is not symmetric
    Let left parenthesis m comma n right parenthesis element of R and open parentheses n comma p close parentheses element of R. Then,
    open table row cell left parenthesis m comma n right parenthesis element of R rightwards double arrow m vertical line n end cell row cell left parenthesis n comma p right parenthesis element of R rightwards double arrow n vertical line p end cell end table close curly brackets rightwards double arrow m vertical line p rightwards double arrow left parenthesis m comma p right parenthesis element of R
    So, R is transitive
    Hence, R is reflexive and transitive but it is not symmetric
