If P(A) = {∅, {5}}, what is the original set A?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: {5}

For any set A, its power set P(A) always contains the empty set and A itself. Here P(A) has exactly two elements: ∅ and {5}. Since the non-empty member is the whole original set, A must be {5}. This also agrees with the rule that a one-element set has 2¹ = 2 subsets: ∅ and {5}.
