If a set has “n” elements, then the number of subset of the given set is 2n and the number of proper subsets of the given subset is given by 2n-1. Consider an example, If set A has the elements, A = {a, b}, then the proper subset of the given subset are { }, {a}, and {b}.
How many subsets are in a set with 5 elements?
The number of subsets is always 2^n where n is the number of elements in the set; in this case 5. There should be 2^5=32 subsets including the empty set and the set itself.
What is the subset of A ={ 1 2 3 }?
Answer: The set {1, 2, 3} has 8 subsets.
