Binary Operation

A process that combines two real numbers to produce another real number.

Basic Binary Operations

Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are fundamental ways to combine numbers.

Defined Binary Operation

A binary operation created by the combination of basic operations, denoted by a symbol (e.g., star).

Evaluating Defined Operations

Replace the variables in the operation's definition with their corresponding values.
