Question 12096: Repeated Group Operation with a Zero-Multiple Boundary

Original question and givens

Use the complete Cayley table=[[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [1, 5, 4, 2, 0, 3], [2, 4, 5, 1, 3, 0], [3, 2, 1, 0, 5, 4], [4, 0, 3, 5, 2, 1], [5, 3, 0, 4, 1, 2]] on Fin(6)={0,…,5}, in the given row/column label order. Closure, associativity, a unique two-sided identity and inverses must first qualify on the whole table. The identity need not be label 0. Do not assume commutativity from the family name or a few samples; these results concern only the specified finite group. element=5, nonnegative multiplier=23. Give (element,multiplier,identity,result).
