Practice Test on Sets and Subsets

In practice test on sets and subsets we will solve 15 different types of question on sets and subsets.

1. If U = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13}, then which of the following are subsets of U. 

B = {2, 4} 

A = {0}

C = {1, 9, 5, 13}

D = {5, 11, 1} 

E = {13, 7, 9, 11, 5, 3, 1} 

F = {2, 3, 4, 5} 

2. Let A = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} B = {2, 4, 7, 8) C = {2, 4}. Fill in the blanks by ⊂ or ⊄ to make the resulting statements true.

(a) B __ A

6. Find the number of subsets for set

(a) containing 3 elements

(b) whose cardinal number is 5


7. Find the number of proper subsets of a set

(a) containing 6 elements

8. Show with an example that if the number of elements in a set is ‘n’, then

(a) the number of subsets is 2n

(b) the number of proper subsets is 2n - 1.


9. Write the universal set for the following.

(a) P = {4, 6, 8}     Q = {1, 3, 9}     R = {0, 2, 5}     S = {7}

(c) Prime numbers less than 10, even numbers less than 10, multiples of 3 less than 10.


10. If ξ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

A = {2, 4, 6, 8}

B = {3, 5, 7}

C = {1, 5, 7, 8, 9}

Find (a) A’     (b) B’     (c) C’    


11. State whether true or false.

(a) Quadrilateral ⊆ polygon

(b) {1} ↔ {0}

(c) Whole numbers ⊆ natural numbers

(d) {a} ∈ {d, e, f, a}

(e) Natural numbers ⊆ whole numbers

(f) Integers ⊆ natural numbers

(g) 0 ∈ ∅

(h) ∅ ∈ {1 , 2, 3 }

12. Let the set of integer be the universal set and let A = set of whole numbers, then what is A’?


13. Let A {x : x = n — 2, n < 5}. Find A when

(a) n = W, n ∈ W

(b) n = N, n ∈ N

(c) n ∈ I = I


14. If U = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}     X = {3, 5, 7, 9}     Y = {2, 4, 6, 8}

Show that X = Y’ and Y = X’


15. Let P = {3, 5, 7, 9, 11}     Q = {9, 11, 13}     R = {3, 5, 9}     S = {13, 11}
