Which of the following is a subset of the set A: {integers divisible by 3 from 1 to 25} Answer {6, 9, 12, 15} {24, 27, 30, 33} {integers divisible by 6 from 1 to 36} {0, 3, 6, 9 …} My answer is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{6, 9, 12, 15} D. is incorrect since the element 0 is not part of the original set {integers divisible by 3 from 1 to 25}.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also, D is not bounded by 25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But 3 is divisible by 3 though and it doesn't appear in A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Subset means, fewer than the full. So, it is fine.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It does not have 18, 21 and 24 either. But, still is a subset because it contains at least some of the values in the full set.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

besides, if we follow that logic, then 0 is not divisible by 3, so what is it doing in the set :-D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha your right thanks
