If G = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, what is the total number of subsets of G?
Step 1: Identify the set G, which is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
Step 2: Count the number of elements in the set G. There are 5 elements.
Step 3: Use the formula for the number of subsets, which is 2 raised to the power of the number of elements (n).
Step 4: Since n = 5, calculate 2^5.
Step 5: Compute 2^5, which equals 32.
Step 6: Conclude that the total number of subsets of G is 32.
Subsets of a Set – The concept of subsets involves understanding that for a set with n elements, the total number of subsets is calculated using the formula 2^n.
