उत्तर
\[\text{Let }a, b, c \in Z\]
\[a * \left( b * c \right) = a * \left( bc + 1 \right)\]
\[ = a\left( bc + 1 \right) + 1\]
\[ = abc + a + 1\]
\[\left( a * b \right) * c = \left( ab + 1 \right) * c\]
\[ = \left( ab + 1 \right)c + 1\]
\[ = abc + c + 1\]
\[\text{Thus,a} * \left( b * c \right) \neq \left( a * b \right) * c\]
Thus, * is not associative on Z.
