The correct response is:

An operation performed on members of that set will result in a member of the same set.

In mathematics, a set is considered closed with respect to a certain operation if performing that operation on elements of the set results in an element that is also in the set. For example, the set of integers is closed under addition because adding two integers always yields an integer.

Just choose a, b, c, or d

The correct choice is:

c. An operation performed on members of that set will result in a member of the same set.
