Associativity of a binary operation is one of most fundamental property in algebra. The number of binary operation on a set of only five elements is as large as 298,023,223,876,953,125. In this paper, the authors give the answer of the question "How many binary operations on a five elements are associative?" The main goal of this paper is to extend [3] and [5] for five element set.
