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.

(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}
