The most common way to formalize this is by defining a field as a set together with two operations, usually called addition and multiplication, and denoted by + and ·, respectively, such that the following axioms hold ; subtraction and division are defined implicitly in terms of the inverse operations of addition and multiplication :< ref group =" note "> That is, the axiom for addition only assumes a binary operation The axiom of inverse allows one to define a unary operation that sends an element to its negative ( its additive inverse ); this is not taken as given, but is implicitly defined in terms of addition as " is the unique b such that ", " implicitly " because it is defined in terms of solving an equation — and one then defines the binary operation of subtraction, also denoted by "−", as in terms of addition and additive inverse.
