Which of the following sets is a subset of ℝ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: {1, 2, 3}
The set ℝ contains all real numbers. The elements 1, 2, and 3 are real numbers, so every element of {1, 2, 3} belongs to ℝ; hence {1, 2, 3} ⊆ ℝ. The other options contain words rather than real-number elements, so they are not subsets of the real-number set in the usual mathematical interpretation.
