Answer: The correct option is (D) 8.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the number of subsets that can be created from the set {1, 2, 3}.

Let the given set be represented by

A = {1, 2, 3}.

So, cardinality of the set is

n(A) = 3.

We know that

of a set has m number of elements, then the number of subsets of the set is given by
2^m.

Therefore, the number of subsets of the given set A is


2^(n(A))=2^3=8.

Thus, there are 8 subsets of the given set.

Option (D) is CORRECT.
