What type of set is the set of months in a year?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Finite set
The months in a year are January through December, giving exactly 12 distinct elements. Since this list has a fixed number of members and the counting ends after December, the set is finite. The set is not empty, not infinite, and “equal set” describes a relationship between two sets rather than the size of one set.
