(1995 Putnam Competition) Let S be a set of real numbers that is closed under multiplication. Let T and U be disjoint subsets of S whose union is S. Given that the product of any three (not necessarily distinct) elements of T is in T and that the product of any three elements of U is in U, show that at least one of the two subsets T and U is closed under multiplication.
