How many elements does 𝒫(𝒫(∅)) have?

Advertisement

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2

First evaluate the inner power set. Since ∅ has no elements, 𝒫(∅) = {∅}, which has one element. Now take the power set of this one-element set. A one-element set has 2¹ = 2 subsets: ∅ and {∅}. Therefore, 𝒫(𝒫(∅)) contains two elements. The two power-set operations must be applied successively from the inside outward.
