Question 9
Consider the operation $*$ defined by the following table:
$$
\begin{array}{c|cccc} * & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ \hline 1 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ 2 & 2 & 4 & 1 & 3 \\ 3 & 3 & 1 & 4 & 2 \\ 4 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1 \end{array}
$$
For example, $3 * 2 = 1.$ Then $(2 * 4) * (1 * 3) =$
$$
\begin{array}{c|cccc} * & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ \hline 1 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ 2 & 2 & 4 & 1 & 3 \\ 3 & 3 & 1 & 4 & 2 \\ 4 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1 \end{array}
$$
For example, $3 * 2 = 1.$ Then $(2 * 4) * (1 * 3) =$
