Question

Create a set of numbers and call the set N. Describe a subset of N and explain why it is a subset of N.

Answer 1

So, do you know what a subset is?

Answer 2

yeah...a set where each member of the set is a member of a larger set

Answer 3

Right. So with the directions you're given, you just need to pick some numbers, any numbers, and put them in a set N.

N={3,5,7,12,23}

Then pick some numbers out of N and make it your subset. You could use your family's birthdays or your phone number or your locker combination. And as for describing what it is, you just did that. :)
