Final answer:

The number of subsets in a set of n members is 2^n. For {a, b, c, d, e}, n = 5, so the number of subsets is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the set has 5 members. The number of subsets in a set is given by 2^n, where n is the number of members in the set. Therefore, the number of subsets in this set is 2^5 = 32. So the correct answer is option c) 32.
