Question

Let’s write the possible subsets of the following sets and list the proper subsets separately

(a)F={apple}
(b)A={1,2}
(c)E={a,b,c}
(d)T={1,2,3,4}

Answer 1

Explanation:

(a) subsets are {apple}, { }

(b) subsets are {1}, {2}, {1,2}, { }

proper subsets are {1}, {2}

(c) subsets are

{a}, {b}, {c}, {a,b}, {a,c}, {b,c}, {a,b,c}, { }

proper subsets are {a}, {b}, {c}, {a,b}, {a,c}, {b,c}

(d) subsets are {1},{2},{3},{4},{1,2},{1,3},{1,4},{2,3},{2,4},{3,4},{1,2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3,4},{2,3,4},{1,2,3,4},{ }

proper subsets are {1},{2},{3},{4},{1,2},{1,3},{1,4},{2,3},{2,4},{3,4},{1,2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3,4},{2,3,4}
