Sample Questions

1multiple choice

The empty set is denoted by:

Show answer

ϕ

The empty set (null set/void set) is denoted by ϕ or {}. {0} is a singleton containing zero. {ϕ} is a set containing the empty set — it has one element.

2multiple choice

Which of the following sets is a finite set?

Show answer

Set of all prime numbers less than 100

A finite set has a definite number of elements. Prime numbers less than 100 is a bounded, countable set (there are 25 primes less than 100). The others are infinite sets.

3multiple choice

The cardinal number of the set A = {x : x is a letter in the word "MATHEMATICS"} is:

Show answer

8

In sets, elements are listed without repetition. Letters in MATHEMATICS: M, A, T, H, E, M, A, T, I, C, S → distinct letters: M, A, T, H, E, I, C, S → 8 distinct letters.

4multiple choice

If A = {a, b, c} and B = {c, b, a}, then:

Show answer

A = B because they have the same elements

In sets, order of elements does not matter. {a, b, c} and {c, b, a} contain exactly the same elements, so A = B.
