Answer:
159 proper subsets.
Explanation:
Given a set {2, 4, 6, 8...100}, how many proper subsets are there?
First, find how many subsets there are in 2 - 10:
That's 16.
Then because there are 10 10s in 100, multiply by 10:
16 x 10 = 160
Finally, because it says proper subsets, subtract by 1:
160 - 1 = 159 proper subsets.
Therefore, there are 159 proper subsets in {2, 4, 6, 8...100}
