Answer:

You cannot write same elements in a set.

Explanation:

In Set Theory, you cannot write same elements in a set.

Examples

A = {1,1} is not correct; the correct is A = {1}

B = {a,a,b,b,c,c} is not correct; the correct is B = {a,b,c}

———

See for D = {m,a,t,h,e,m,a,t}

There are same m's, a's and t's.

The correct should be D = {m,a,t,h,e}
