If (A) has (3) elements and (B) has (5) elements, can there be an onto function from (A) to (B)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because the codomain has more elements

Step 1: In an onto function, every element of (B) needs at least one preimage. Step 2: (A) has only (3) elements while (B) has (5), so covering all elements of (B) is impossible. Step 3: For finite sets, onto requires (|A|\ge|B|).
