If A = {∅, {∅}, 1}, which of the following is a subset of A?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: {∅, 1}
The elements of A are the empty set ∅, the singleton set {∅}, and the number 1. A set is a subset of A only when every one of its elements is an element of A. Option A contains ∅ and 1, both of which belong to A. Option B contains 0, option C contains {{∅}}, and option D contains 2; these are not elements of A.
